there should be a medical drug selling counter in every running train and in every platform of each and every railway station. Then, the station will become a smart and model railway station of the country.

Few days ago I was returning from kerela by train when my mother got severely ill from cardiac problem. I realised then that if there I got a doctor it would have been really very relief for mother. I earnestly request to PM Narendra Modi ji that if you take any step where there will be atleast 5 doctors on long journey trains then many people who fall ill will get emergency relief. There should be atleast 1 Cardiac specialist on train. Plus, there should be a small medical drug selling counter

1. Trespassing occur because people don't prefer stairs. If more emphasis is laid on escalators at prominent places, trespassing can be controlled. 2. Besides that spreading awareness among people regarding the risk of life involved in trespassing. 3. TC who collect tickets, should issue fine/challans to people found trespassing which may be proved by cameras installed which will recover cameras installation cost as well as provide funds to keep more cameras which will be always helpful.

Railway Barrier/ crossing can be made in a way that no one can cross it from down (by bending) or from above (by jumping) instead of iron pipe. further conversion of without railway staff operated crossings to railway staff operated crossings. And impose penalty for people crossing in unauthorized way and this power of imposing penalty should be given to gate man (railway staff)
