Mumbai: Automatic Door Prototype for Non-AC Trains Faces Scrutiny

Mumbai's Central Railway is testing automatic doors for non-AC local trains to prevent people from falling out.

Some experts think it's a bad idea, calling the design "crude" and saying it won't work in crowded trains.

Others say the railway should focus on increasing the number of trains and making the whole system better, like switching to air-conditioned trains.

The idea is to make trains safer.

However, others worry that the automatic doors will worsen ventilation and cause delays.

There's also talk about how to prevent accidents, with people suggesting things like more trains and tackling trespassing issues.
