  • 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.

  • Indian Railways Budget Speech 2004-05 (Interim)
    Indian Railways Budget Speech 2004-05 (Interim) Speech of Shri Nitish Kumar Introducing the Railway Budget for 2004-2005, on 30 th January, 2004 Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to place before the House the Revised Estimates for 2003-2004 and the estimated receipts and expenditure for 2004-2005. The estimates for the next financial year are for the whole year, but at present I seek from the August House a "Vote on Account", sufficient to provide for the estimated expenditure for the first four months. The requirements for the remaining part of the year are to be voted separately, later on. 2. I would like to make special mention of some of the areas in which concrete measures have been initiated under the dynamic leadership of Hon'ble Prime Minister. Thanks to his farsighted decision, the Railways have been able to embark upon the much needed programme of replacement and renewals of over-aged assets with an assured funding through the Special Railway Safety Fund, having substantial contribution from the general exchequer. The launching of the National Rail Vikas Yojana, for removal of bottlenecks in the saturated sections of the railway network, is yet another initiative. The Technology Mission on Railway Safety, announced on Independence Day last year, aims at developing and adopting state- of-the-art safety, control and design technologies. The capital component of Railways' plan outlay registered a considerable boost under his guidance, which facilitated completion of a number of projects. Further, Railways have also embarked on several non-budgetary initiatives including cost sharing arrangements to raise funds for various ' projects.
