Vande Bharat ट्रेनों की स्पीड घटाई जाएगी, रेलवे के बड़े अधिकारियों ने ऐसी क्या चिंता जता दी?

Following the recent Kanchenjunga Express accident, the Railway Board is considering a proposal to reduce the speed of premium trains like Vande Bharat and Gatiman Express from 160 kmph to 130 kmph. This proposal, initiated by the North Central Railway, cites safety concerns and the malfunctioning Train Protection Warning System (TPWS)...

on the Delhi-Agra-Jhansi route. While the initial proposal to reduce speed to 130 kmph was submitted in November 2023, a new proposal was submitted on June 25th, 2024, after the TPWS system remained unrepaired. The decision to reduce speed is expected to impact at least 10 premium train timings. Critics argue that this action may contradict the original purpose of these high-speed trains and that a more thorough investigation into the root cause of the accidents is necessary before making such a decision.

Kanchenjunga Express ka accident hone ke baad, Railway Board ab premium trains jaise Vande Bharat aur Gatiman Express ki speed 160 kmph se ghata kar 130 kmph karne ka proposal de raha hai. North Central Railway ne yeh proposal diya hai, aur unka kehna hai ki yeh safety ke liye zaruri...

hai, kyunki Delhi-Agra-Jhansi route pe Train Protection Warning System (TPWS) kharab hai. November 2023 mein pehle bhi yeh proposal diya gaya tha, lekin ab June 25th, 2024 ko fir se proposal aaya hai, kyunki TPWS abhi tak thik nahi hua hai. Isse kam se kam 10 premium train ke timings badalenge. Kuch log keh rahe hain ki isse high-speed trains ka asli maqsad pura nahi hoga, aur accident ke asli wajah ki jaanch kiye bina speed kam karna thik nahi hai.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
