Nagpur: Railway Protection Force (RPF) and Government Railway Police (GRP) are all set to engage in a coordination meeting shortly to thrash out issues between the two different units to ensure better safety of passengers and their properties. Bringing down crimes on Nagpur railway station, among other issues, is likely to take centre stage in the meeting.

The rise in crime on railway stations and trains seems to have left the concerned railway security forces with fresh challenges. Apart from strengthening their own anti-crime mechanisms, RPF and GRP authorities are now also keen to deliberate on synchronized actions to clamp down on miscreants. The top cops from both the units believe that an open interaction will pave way for better understanding of each other’s roles.

RPF’s senior divisional security commissioner, Central Railway, A Ibrahim Sheriff and superintendent of police, (in-charge), GRP, Prakash Jadhav are both gearing up to ensure the coordination meeting ushers a new episode in the relation between the two units engaged in the common objective of security on the railway premises.

RPF’s senior commandant, Sheriff said the meeting would be focused to step up coordination at the grass roots level. “The staffers of either unit should not feel that they are in competition against each other. We have to work leaving behind the disagreements,” said Sheriff. He said that there is steep rise in crime against passengers which has grown by nearly 50%. “Free registration of offences may be one of the reasons behind the bloated crime figure, but we are taking it as a challenge now,” he said. Sheriff said that he is also coordinating with SP Rail (Bhopal).

“RPF and GRP should help each other. If RPF comes across any criminal then the personnel should immediately hand him over to the GRP. The GRP is also expected to inform us about matter that concerns us,” he said.

It’s learnt that RPF and GRP have now taken up the responsibilities of patrolling the outer portions of the Nagpur railway station by sharing the areas. “RPF is also especially focusing on thefts of parcels from small luggage rooms and escorting the trains that run in the night. Rescuing of children is also one our prime focus area,” said Sheriff.

GRP SP Jadhav said he had already invited Sheriff to be present in the railway crime meeting to voice his opinions. “Apart from coordinations, we are also strengthening our local crime branch and detection branch of Nagpur GRP police station,” said Jadhav.

Lack of multimodal transportation and shortage of specialised Railway wagons to move cars are affecting the movement of vehicles within the country and exports, according to Tom Chackalackal, Executive Director, Manufacturing, Ford India.At present, Ford has to depend only on roads to move cars from its manufacturing plant at Maraimalai Nagar near Chennai or from Ennore port to the North of the city for exports. There is no proper rail connectivity from the plant to the port or to reach customers in other parts of the country.The shortage of specialised wagons is adding to the problem, he told reporters on the sidelines of a two-conference on Auto SCM 2013 — ‘World-class automotive supply chains – accelerating enablers in India,’ organised by the CII Institute of Logistics.When asked to comment on the shortage of wagons for the automobile sector, a senior official of the Southern Railway said the vehicles are moved by specialised wagons. The Railways has converted some of the passenger bogies to load cars. While these wagons are in short supply, the automobile majors are not giving a commitment on the requirement to plan properly, he said.R. Dinesh, Co-Chairman, CII Institute of Logistics Advisory Council, said coastal shipping offers ‘enormous’ cost saving to the trade. The institute has suggested to the Government on this, he said.

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The UDF government in Kerala has decided to tie up with Railways to develop a Rs 3500-crore high-speed suburban corridor stretching some 100 km north of the state capital.The state cabinet today cleared the proposal chalked outduring discussions with senior officials of Railways and Mumbai Rail Vikas Corporation (MRVC), Chief Minister Oommen Chandy told reporters today.A special purpose vehicle (SPV) would be formed for implementation of the project and MRVC would be entrusted with the task of preparing a detail project report within three months at a cost of Rs 10.99 crore.The railways and the state would bear 50:50 stake in SPVand the project would be carried out by utilising the existingdouble-line track from Thiruvananthapuram to Chengannur and Kayamkulam to Haripad."The greatest advantage of the project is that it would not require land acquisition as it could be materialised by utilising the existing double-line in the stretch," Chandy said.

The vital component of the project would be automation of the signalling system which would enable operation of as many as 10 MEMUs (Mainline Electrical Multiple Units ) in the stretch without upsetting the current traffic, he said. Modernisation of some important stations would also be part of it.

This particular stretch in south Kerala was selected as the tracks in the area were entirely doubled. Also, this was an area where passenger density is higher compared to other parts of the state.

In the case of central and north Kerala, where the track doubling was yet to be completed, Railways had promised to introduce a few high speed trains. One such service would be between Ernakulam and Kannur, Chandy said.

हिसार : मॉडल स्टेशन पर सीसीटीवी कैमरे लगाए जाने के प्रस्ताव को हरी झंडी मिल गई है। पांच साल से इस प्रस्ताव का इंतजार कर रहे स्टेशन को जल्द ही एक दर्जन से अधिक कैमरों की सुविधा नसीब होने वाली है। सभी छह प्लेटफार्म, दो प्रवेश द्वार व बुकिंग परिसर में सीसीटीवी कैमरे स्थापित किए जाएंगे। बीकानेर मंडल के अधिकारियों ने स्थान निश्चित कर कैमरों के दायरे में आने वाले स्टेशन परिसर का नक्शा तैयार कर लिया है। इन कैमरों की फुटेज संकलन व नजर रखने के लिए नियंत्रण कक्ष स्थापित किया जाएगा। आरपीएफ थाना से सटे कक्ष में कंट्रोल रूम बनाया जाएगा।
हर रोज आवागमन करने वाले 12 हजार से अधिक यात्रियों से सौ से अधिक रेलगाड़ियों की आवाजाही के कारण सुरक्षा की दृष्टि से सीसीटीवी कैमरों की दरकार कई साल पहले से ही महसूस की गई है। अधिकारिक सूत्रों अनुसार फिलहाल कैमरों को लगाने के साथ नियंत्रण कक्ष अस्थाई तौर पर प्लेटफार्म नंबर दो व तीन के बीच भवन में बनाया जा रहा है। नए भवन का निर्माण कार्य पूरा होते ही कंट्रोल रूम शिफ्ट कर दिया जाएगा।
जीआरपी व आरपीएफ को मिलेगी राहत
कम स्टाफ और पुराने साधनों से सुरक्षा का जिम्मा उठा रही रेलवे की जीआरपी व आरपीएफ फोर्स को सीसीटीवी कैमरों से काफी मदद मिलेगी। दोनों बलों के प्रभारियों का कहना है कि कैमरों से 24 घंटे निगरानी में सहयोग के अलावा किसी घटना के बाद भी फुटेज को देख अपराधी तक पहुंचने में मदद मिलेगी।
बहुत जल्द लगेंगे सीसीटीवी कैमरे
बीकानेर मंडल के एडीआरएम जीत सिंह ने बताया कि सभी औपचारिकताएं पूरी हो चुकी हैं। जल्द ही स्टेशन परिसर सीसीटीवी कैमरों से लैस हो जाएगा। सुरक्षा की दृष्टि से प्लेटफार्म, टिकट घर, प्रवेश द्वार व यात्री पुल पर कैमरे लगाने का निर्णय लिया गया है।
