The first thing that Vaisnaw did to guarantee that the command was carried out correctly was to silence the bell in his own office. According to the office of the Minister, the goal of the effort was to change the mindset of the VVIP culture as well as to ensure that each employee here is given the same amount of respect.

According to the sources, the minister also wants one hundred percent of each person to work at maximum speed on the railways, which is something that can only be accomplished if there is zero percent of a VVIP culture.

Vaishnaw had taken such measures in the past as well, with the goal of altering the work culture in his office and establishing direct communication between the officers and staff members in order to inspire loyalty and faith in each other’s work.

However, the “No Bells” project that was begun by the Minister’s office ushers in a new era at the Ministry of Railways in which the “Call Bells” will no longer be heard.

Question: If there is a problem in the facilities provided by the Railways, can we complain in the consumer forum also?
Answer: When you buy a ticket, then it is called consideration, that is, you have availed the service of the railway. Railway has taken money from you, it means that it is your service provider. Now it is the responsibility of the Railways to provide all the facilities inside the train properly to the customer i.e. its passenger. In this way, it is the responsibility of the Railways to provide blankets and sheets and to clean them as well. If all this is not clear then a passenger has the right to complain in the consumer forum.

In the last 15 days, there have been complaints of dirty blankets and sheets…

Question: Are the blankets and sheets present in the bedroll not washed?
Answer: Railway has been promising to provide clean bedroll, but in reality it is not happening till now. Regarding the washing of blankets, the Railways have accepted that the blankets are washed once or twice a month. The contractors take the contract from the Railways by filling quotations at a lower rate. After this, the used sheets and pillow are pressed again without washing and put in the packet.

In 2016, the Railways had said that complaints about dirty blankets are continuously coming, so NIFT students have been asked to make cotton and wool mix washable blankets. It will be used first in premium trains, later in all trains. What happened to this project is not yet known. Similarly, this issue was discussed many times in the Parliament, but the negligence regarding cleanliness did not reduce.

Last year, Navbharat Times Gold revealed why dirty sheets are found in AC coaches. The reporter took up a job as a press worker in Loundreds Company, Sector 83, Noida. In the report, he revealed that dirty and smelly blankets are pressed and packed. All the CCTV cameras installed where the press is done are either closed or defective.

Question: What to do if your luggage is stolen in a moving train?
Answer: If luggage is stolen in a moving train, inform the TTE, conductor, coach attendant, guard or GRP escort of the passenger train. They will help you report your stolen or lost items.

Question: If luggage is stolen in a train, is it necessary to break the journey and drop the passenger at a station for FIR?
Answer: No. It is not necessary to do this. You can file an FIR in a moving train as well, but if the situation is extreme and passenger’s testimony is required, then you may have to get down at a station and testify at the GRP station.
