Kavach tech to be deployed on 34,000 km of rail routes

To avoid train accidents, the Railway Board has approved installation of Kavach technology along 34,000 kilometres of the country’s busiest and most regularly utilised rail routes. The goal is to finish installing armour technology on the two busiest train lines in the nation, Delhi-Howrah and Delhi-Mumbai, by March 2024. This information from the Railway Board is contained in the report that the Radha Mohan Singh-led Parliamentary Standing Committee on Railways delivered to Parliament last week. The committee expressed satisfaction with the development of the homegrown Kavach train accident prevention system.
