Holiday dates also may vary by year and locality as a result of the multiple calendars in use—including two solar and three lunar calendars—and different astrological calculations by religious authorities. In fact, holidays may not be observed if religious authorities deem the date to be inauspicious for a specific year. The following holidays are observed nationwide: Sahid Diwash (Martyrs’ Day; movable date in January); National Unity Day and birthday of Prithvi Narayan Shah (January 11); Maha Shiva Ratri (Great Shiva’s Night, movable date in February or March); Rashtriya Prajatantra Diwash (National Democracy Day, movable date in February); Falgu Purnima, or Holi (movable date in February or March); Ram Nawami (Rama’s Birthday, movable date in March or April); Nepali New Year (movable date in April); Buddha’s Birthday (movable date in April or May); King Gyanendra’s Birthday (July 7); Janai Purnima (Sacred Thread Ceremony, movable date in August); Children’s Day (movable date in August); Dashain (Durga Puja Festival, movable set of five days over a 15-day period in September or October); Diwali/Tihar (Festival of Lights and Laxmi Puja, movable set of five days in October); and Sambhidhan Diwash (Constitution Day, movable date in November).

  • View Emerging out of the Check of These 74 Stations Is Indicated in Following Table
    Security Management in Indian Railways Chapter 3 Protection of Passengers and their belongings including Strategy to Control Crime The most important aspect of any security strategy is to ensure the safety and security of its passengers. The Railways are the most preferred mode of transport in India and are spread over a vast geographical area of over 64015 route kilometres and 7030 number of stations. The Citizen Charter of Indian Railways spells out the railways commitment to provide safe and dependable train services to passengers. 3.1 Security of Passengers The security of railway passengers is interlinked with the security and safety of railway assets used by the passengers viz the railway stations and trains. The GRP by virtue of being a wing of the State Police is responsible for the prevention and detection of crime and maintenance of law and order on station premises /circulating areas and trains. The RPF was responsible for the security of Railway property. The security of passengers and passenger area was also entrusted to the Railway Protection Force in 2003 through an amendment in the RPF Act. To fix yard sticks /norms for the procurement of security related equipments for use of RPF /RPSF personnel, the IR set up a Norms Committee in December 2006. The norms for procurement of security related equipment were issued in September 2007. Consequently the Railways spent a sum of ` 67 crore on procurement of these equipments during 2007-08. Increasing traffic density and the increase in the threat perception to the Indian Railways called for a paradigm shift from the existing level of ad-hoc preparedness to a readiness to handle any disastrous situation triggered by a security lapse.

Enhancing speed of trains: At present, speed of trains of Mail/Express trains is below 55 kmph. These are low as per international standards. Segregation of freight and passenger traffic, enhancing the sectional speeds, and rationalization of stoppages are important measures for speed enhancement. The speed of especially the passenger trains is quite low at present primarily because of the coaching stock in use and due to multiplicity of stoppages enroute. There is scope for speeding up of these services by replacing trains with conventional stock by fast moving EMUs/MEMUs/DEMUs. Enhancing the sectional speeds is another enabling factor in speeding them.
