Train Accidents Significantly Down, Says Railway Minister

The Railway Minister reported a major drop in train accidents, from a high number a decade ago to very few now.

This is thanks to things like new electronic systems that help prevent human mistakes, as well as other tech like 'Kavach' which help make sure trains stay safe and on track.

The minister also mentioned other methods of monitoring the alertness of the train operators to help ensure everyone's safety on the railways.
