Against the background of the Middle Day incident reported in the Kovilpattti-Kadamburk section 24 June, a division railway manager, Sharad Srivastava issued new instructions on the railway infrastructure inspection to ensure the safe operation of the trains.
It insists on the officials to carry out the off -road inspections at least once a week, said the inspection carried out by traffic inspectors (those) should be monitored every day by a divisional operating manager.
In addition, their inspection remarks should focus on the areas necessary for safety and should bring the required improvement rather than a “routine/recurring” inspection notes that would not help the system.
“No stereo-type control”
DRM recommended yew against the implementation of stereo-type inspections. “Instead, they should perform periodic inspections of stations and try to meet all stations stations at least every two months. They should look for system problems in train operations such as shortcuts,” the instructions said.
DRM recommended the head of the senior operation director to explore the reports of all unusual situations, such as publishing line bright tickets and release of the emergency route at stations every fourteen days.
Cross -control documents
DRM insisted that every time you fail, the timing specified in the documents of various employees and officials should be cross -controlled by the timing of data that the inspectors of the operation of the sections. “It will be a deterrent means of emiric staff that will resort to the abbreviation,” DrM explained.
Although officials could continue with random checks at stations with logger reports
To identify and remove all methods of abbreviations that are adhered to during normal work, they can also resort to inspections where frequent and prolonged signal failure is reported to prevent the abbreviations from being accepted.
The DRM also emphasized the traffic inspector or another master of the station rushing to the station, in the event of any failure at the station/section to help SM on the SM service on an abnormal train that works properly according to the rules.
“This will reduce the pressure on SM in the SM service and will help ensure safe train operations,” the instructions said.
