Indian Railways Commissions Kavach 4.0 on Delhi-Mumbai and Delhi-Howrah Routes
Indian Railways has commissioned Kavach Version 4.0, an indigenously developed automatic train protection system, across 2,490 route kilometres on the Delhi-Mumbai and Delhi-Howrah corridors. The system enhances safety by automatically applying brakes if drivers fail to act and supports operations in low-visibility conditions. Deployment includes extensive infrastructure upgrades and training for over 94,000 personnel. The technology, certified at the highest safety level, is planned for broader rollout across key railway networks, with ongoing installation on locomotives and train sets.
