ट्रेन में कर रहे हैं सफर तो हो जाए सावधान...तीन माह 10 दिन में 14 मोबाइल ले गए चोर

Train passengers continue to face challenges with increasing mobile theft on trains, despite efforts by GRP and RPF. Between July 1st and October 10th, 14 mobile phones were stolen from passengers on trains. Two specific cases are highlighted: one involving a passenger who fell asleep on the train with...

his phone charging and another where a passenger had his phone stolen while waiting for a ticket at the station. The GRP has registered these incidents but investigations are ongoing. In a separate development, the Bilaspur Railway Division is equipping Ticket Ticket Examiners (TTEs) with body-worn cameras and walkie-talkies to enhance security and deter false accusations. The cameras will record the TTE's interactions during their duty, providing evidence for any complaints. The initiative aims to enhance safety for both TTEs and passengers, with the walkie-talkies already proving successful for communication in areas with poor network coverage.

Train mein safar karne wale yaatriyon ki mushkilon ka naam nahi le raha hai. GRP aur RPF ki musteedi ke bawajood bhi trainon mein mobile chori ki vaaradate lagatar badhti ja rahi hai. Ek July se 10 October ke beech train mein safar kar rahe yaatriyon ke 14 mobile chori ho...

gaye. Mobile chori ki badhti ghatna ne logon ko chinta mein daal rakha hai kyunki raste mein mobile chori ke baad unka sambandh sabhi se tut jata hai. Case mein GRP apradh darj kar kar maamle mein jaanch ka havala hi de rahi hai. Do specific cases mention kiye gaye hain: ek mein ek yaatri jo train mein so gaya tha apne mobile ko charging point per laga kar aur dusra case mein ek yaatri ka mobile chori ho gaya tha jab woh station per ticket katne ke liye intezaar kar raha tha. Bilaspur Rail Mandal TTEs ko body-worn cameras aur walkie-talkies se laas kar raha hai security badhane aur galat aaropoon ko rokne ke liye. Camera TTEs ke interaction ko record karega apni duty ke dauraan, kisi bhi shikayat ke liye proof provide karega. Yeh pehal TTEs aur yaatriyon dono ki suraksha badhane ka uddeshya hai, walkie-talkies pehle se hi kamyabi se areas mein jahaan network nahin hai, communication ke liye kaam kar rahe hain.
