 Section 147 of Railway act prescribes that:-

1. If any person enters upon or into any part of a railway without lawful authority he shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may be extended to six months or with a fine which may extend to one thousand rupees or with both.

Provided that in the absence of special and adequate reasons to the contrary to be mentioned in the judgment of the court, such punishment shall not be less than a fine of five hundred rupees.

2. Any person referred to in sub-section(1) may be removed from the railway by any railway servant or by any other person whom such railway servant may call to his aid.

However, over Indian Railways, especially over suburban sections deaths occur due to trespassing.

Suggest solutions for reducing trespassing of Railway tracks.

There is no reason that unreserved tickets should not be available on internet. Today if one does not get a reserved ticket, he would have to stand in Q and increase administrative load of railways. Let him buy a ticket on internet so that TTE does not exploit him for being without ticket.

One social issue I would like to share. 1 Shatabdi train has Average 13 Coaches, 78 persons each coach Total 1014 Persons, Now 30 % to 40 % persons do not eat their full food, and the same food is being trashed. We can fill the Stomach of poor & needy people. Food wastage of Gross can be stopped. 52 to 60 Such Trains are running and around 18000 perosns food being wasted. Please stop this national wastage

Yes, I do Agree with Mr. Pradimun... All Shatabdi & Rajdhani, too have low fare, and Pepole should not be constrained to eat the food of the Tarin. Catering Service Should be there, which provide foof at a Price, Those Persons want food can buy at cost. The persons not want the food can save Money, and Railway can earn more by running these type of trains.

in comming railway budget, for shatabadi and Rajdhani trains can we implement choice meal and not falt amount of mealsthen way we do in low cost airlines, this way we can reduce the fair and reduce catering burden, at the best while booking ticket, passenger can opt for meal or no meals and cost of ticket can be given accordingly.

Sir, U probably already aware of the situation that 100's of people will be travelling to Bangalore from Vijayawada every day to meet their needs, we have only few trains and those trains are fully occupied everyday. We kindly request you to sanction a special train between Vijayawada and Bangalore running on a daily basis or alteast on weekend to catch weekend rush, and also requesting to make sure it will be run on daily basis later

Trespassing is a major issue as deaths a increasing due to trespassing The main reason for this is that we people are lazy and well educated are also found due that same majorly in metros like Mumbai One of the idea can be by building wall or fence after every fence and those found doing the act should be penalised. Another taken from airports where we have aero bridges or similar can be worked out
