The most common complaints registered by the RPF, categorized as 'punctuality tasks', are alarm chain pulling, stone-pelting, and track runovers. The primary reasons for chain pulling are passengers arriving late or waiting for their co-passengers. This offense is punishable under Section 141 of the Railways Act, 1989, with a penalty of imprisonment up to one year, a fine of Rs. 1,000, or both. The RPF also handles complaints and assistance through the Rail Madad app, with the most frequent case being luggage left behind, followed by missing passengers and theft of belongings. There is a category for “misbehaviour with women”, but such incidents are rare. To identify chain pullers, the RPF relies on the pressure drop sound, passenger emergency alarm indicator, and blinking LED light in LHB coaches.
