To the best of my knowledge, max number of deaths happen in Mumbai Suburban local trains, approx 10 deaths a day, There is a need to identify the zones where maximum deaths happen, the requirements for all the zones may vary at different locations,may be here the information for the deaths can be passed on from the station managers. Just like in corporates vn v have an issue we log in a ticket at online portal, there shud be a portal where the travelers can register their complaints.

Railway should check passengers travelling without tickets and should charge fine to them .This is the best way to raise money to develop railway . railway is concentrating on goods transfer income. if We pay fine to those people sure railway profit will increase. pay huge fine to atleast 10 passengers in a train who travels without ticket by giving protection to Ticket examiners then people will change this attitude.

Railway should be change the system, this system should be work like as delhi metro it could be helpful for reduce deaths due to trespassing. Railway track should be underground or be elevated this is very helpful for the passenger payment system, without ticket passenger could not be travel in the train and we could finish the problem of deaths due to trespassing.
