NEW DELHI, OCT 1:   The Railway Ministry has asked the Zonal Railways to define the trains where the Tatkal scheme for passenger trains will be implemented as well as notify the dates for such scheme, raising fears that such implementation will create confusion.

The Railway Ministry had last week said that it will widen the Tatkal scheme, where people pay more money to do last minute reservations, by bringing in passenger trains in the ambit of Tatkal reservation segment.

At present, Tatkal scheme is available in almost all Mail/Express trains and in all reserved classes except First Class and First AC Class. Now, the Ministry of Railways has now decided to introduce Tatkal scheme in reserved classes of passenger trains also, according to a release.

The Tatkal scheme in passenger trains will be available in reserved classes: 2nd AC, 3rd AC, 3rd AC Economy, Chair Class, Sleeper Class and 2nd reserved sitting.

Tatkal charges in passenger trains will be Rs 10 for reserved second sitting, Rs 90 for sleeper, Rs 100 for air-conditioned (AC) Chair Car, Rs 250 for 3 AC and Rs 300 for 2AC.

For this purpose, Zonal Railways will identify the passenger trains and earmark the Tatkal accommodation in that train/class in which the average utilisation during the previous financial year has been more than 60 per cent, added the release.

Guruvayur Express hits the herd at Thenur

Over fifty heads of cattle were run over by the speeding Chennai-bound Guruvayur Express at Thenur near Samayanallur on Monday afternoon. Five injured animals were treated by a team of veterinary officials.The herd of cows, oxen and calves were crossing the Madurai-Dindigul railway track when the train, running at a high speed, mowed them down between Samayanallur and Sholavandan railway stations, a railway official said. The animals were part of a ‘kida maadu’ herd – animals that are confined to particular farm land by landlords for their dung which is used as manure – that were being herded from one farm to another when the accident took place. After leaving Madurai railway station, the train had picked up speed and was running at 100 kmph.“The driver had noticed the animals on the track all of a sudden. He handled the situation cautiously, as he had to negotiate a curve there. He had tried his best to apply the brakes, but the speeding train required a minimum braking distance. The animals were dragged for nearly 200 metres,” the official said.Meanwhile, Collector L. Subramanian and other officers inspected the accident site. The exact number of the animals killed could not be arrived as many of them were torn apart. The dead animals were buried nearby, while the injured animals were handed over to the President of Thenur Panchayat. The animals would be treated by veterinary officials there.

The officials suspect that the owner of the herd could have fled from the scene.

Mass awareness drive takes up at railway stations in Berhampur and Puri

East Coast Railway has started a mass awareness drive to check incidents of looting of money and valuables from passengers by touts and miscreants during the festive rush in trains.

As part of this project, an awareness programme continued at Berhampur railway station on Monday. As per railway authorities similar drive was also taken up at Puri railway station. Such initiative had been started in Bhubaneswar railway station and during next few days such awareness building efforts would be taken up in other major railway stations under East Coast Railway.

The railway authorities had joined hands with personnel of Railway Protection Force (RPF) and Government Railway Police (GRP) for the purpose. To draw attention of passengers and to pass on the message in entertaining manner, street play, folk dance as well as mock drills was organised at Berhampur railway station.

Assistant security commissioner of East Coast railway P.K.Mansingh said it has been observed that usually passengers are looted by miscreants who use intoxicating narcotics through food materials to make their victims unconscious. Usually these incidents increase during festive season like Durga puja. Mr Mansingh advised all to be cautious and not to accept any food materials from any stranger except from the authorised vendors by the railways.

The awareness campaign started with a realistic mock rescue of a passenger from the Visakha Express, who was shown to be drugged by some miscreants in the train. Most passengers at the station initially felt something real had happened as the actor was carried on a stretcher by policemen. It was followed by a street play ‘Bhul Hoigala’ produced by RPF, Berhampur, which showed up how miscreants befriend gullible passengers and make them eat food materials laced with a sedative. Most attractive part of the campaign was Dhuduki folk dance performance by Alok Bisoi and troupe, who used the popular folk form to pass on the caution of modern era. Pamphlets describing precautions that should be adhered by the passengers for protection against cheats and miscreants were distributed.

NAGPUR: The Bombay High Court has issued notices to the Railway Minister and the senior personnel officer of South East Central Railway seeking reply on a petition regarding sports quota recruitment. The Nagpur bench of justices Vasanti Naik and Atul Chandurkar, which heard the petition last week, sought the replies within two weeks.

Petitioner Nagpur District Football Association has objected to a condition for recruitment of sportspersons as per the 2002 policy framed by the SECR. The condition requires that a candidate, to qualify for sports quota, must have actually played and merely being a part of the team would not suffice.

The Railways had issued an advertisement for recruitment in the sports quota last August.

Petitioner’s lawyer advocate Virat Mishra argued that the condition violates sportsperson’s fundamental rights and should be set aside.
