The Critical Problem

Frequent Train Collisions in India

⚠️

Impact

  • Loss of lives
  • Property damage worth crores
  • Public fear & loss of confidence
⚙️

Root Causes

  • Outdated Technology: Aging infrastructure in rural areas
  • Human Error: Driver fatigue & poor visibility
  • System Failures: Faulty signalling & inadequate monitoring
📊

The Severity

  • Multiple major accidents annually
  • Hundreds of casualties
  • Thousands affected
  • Crores in economic losses

Community Impact: Passengers, drivers, and railway staff deserve a safe, reliable system that prevents these preventable tragedies.
