 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 should be a long way high quality tight fence or high wall so that people can not jump it and construct a proper way to pass the railway tracks.

On the spot fine collection must be implemented. Railways must appoint persons to impose and collect fine immediately when a person crosses the track. one months time will stop people from doing so atleast in the station surroundings. People give ears only for strong and strict rules.

In Delhi the escalators are designed good gives 2 to 3 steps at the start to put your feet comfortably and then rises whereas in Mumbai at many places including mall & upcoming escalators on railway platforms are very much uncomfortable just the very 1st step rises at the start which for many people including the olds are not easy & accident take place.

India does not need bullet trains. The need is to have fast trains, clean trains, less crowdy trains so that people can like to travel in trains.
