Indian Railways to Install Kavach 4.0

18 Nov 2024 CW Team

Indian Railways is set to enhance safety on its key routes by deploying the advanced Kavach 4.0 safety system, a major step towards modernizing the country's railway infrastructure. Kavach 4.0 is an upgraded version of the Train Collision Avoidance System (TCAS), designed to prevent train accidents by automatically stopping trains in case of an imminent collision. This high-tech system aims to provide real-time monitoring and control, ensuring safer travel for passengers across the Indian railway network.

The system will be installed on major routes, targeting high-traffic areas where the risk of accidents is elevated. Kavach 4.0 uses cutting-edge sensors, GPS, and real-time communication to track trains, providing enhanced control to railway operators and preventing dangerous collisions. Its advanced technology can detect signals, track conditions, and other trains, ensuring automatic braking in case of any potential danger.

This initiative aligns with Indian Railways' efforts to modernize and improve safety protocols, especially on busy and crucial railway corridors. The deployment of Kavach 4.0 is part of the broader railway modernization agenda, which includes upgrading infrastructure, expanding routes, and introducing smarter technologies to improve operational efficiency and passenger safety.
