 Section 147 of Railway act prescribes that:- ...

 Section 147 of Railway act prescribes that:-

1. If any person enters upon or into any part of a railway without lawful authority he shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may be extended to six months or with a fine which may extend to one thousand rupees or with both.

Provided that in the absence of special and adequate reasons to the contrary to be mentioned in the judgment of the court, such punishment shall not be less than a fine of five hundred rupees.

2. Any person referred to in sub-section(1) may be removed from the railway by any railway servant or by any other person whom such railway servant may call to his aid.

However, over Indian Railways, especially over suburban sections deaths occur due to trespassing.

Suggest solutions for reducing trespassing of Railway tracks.

I THINK TO CREATE WORLD CLASS RAILWAY STATIONS IN INDIA WE SHOULD CREATE A SCHEME IN WHICH COMPANY THROUGH THEIR CSR ACTIVITY WILL INVEST SO THEY CAN GET SOME TAXATION BENEFITS AND PEOPLE OF INDIA CAN GET WORLD CLASS STATION WITHOUT ANY INVESTMENT OF GOVT. AND GOVT CAN FIX SOME NORMS FOR PURCHASE OF MATERIAL FOR CONSTRUCTION, ALSO SOME NORMS RELATED TO THE FACILITY PROVIDED SHOULD BE THERE SUCH AS CANTEENS, LIFTS, BAGGAGE COUNTERS AND GOVY CAN ALSO DEMAND THAT EVERY ROOF SHOULD HAVE SOLARPANELS.

I am thinking to create an application which will allow people to directly apply for any government id card like voter id, driving license by just a click away and then a government official will be in touch with the customer and helping with the further process. Is this a helpful idea? Please share your views on it and tell whether this shall be made or not!

Pleased to know about introducing online booking of concessional ticket for handicap but before booking, the procedure to register as handicap with concerned DRM is very typical since sending original documents through mail/courier, for verification involve risk of lost in transit & very difficult to come in person in majority of cases. Hence It is my suggestion to get original documents be verified/attested SM of nearest railway station & then sent o you for necessary action in DRM office.

It is both side responsibility for general public as well as Indian rail ways to stop trespassers 1) Awareness programs can help (which railways is always doing) 2) Wall-off or fence tracks in busy areas & build up foot-over-bridge over track for general public 3) implement strictly 147 of IR act (this is a matter of good governance) 4) Give a fresh air to corruption ridden I.R. without that no plan can be implemented successfully..

Railway should use bullet train technology to replace old tracks & signaling system + bullet train should replace old train coaches which are very old compare to now

1.The toilets in the comptments shd have more handles to hold on. It becomes very difficult for elderly people to use the toilets in the running trains. 2.The toilets should be clned by running train stff and shd be done 3 hrly.Imagine 18 people using one toilet (I am talking about the regular passengers) There are other people like unauthorised vendors,beggers,unrsrved passgers also using these toilets.Not every passnger is from same socio-eco bkgrnd and is aware abt hygine and clnliness.
