Women Expand Roles Across Indian Railway Operations and Safety Services

Women across various Indian railway divisions are increasingly taking on diverse roles traditionally dominated by men. In Vadodara, women serve as pointsmen, loco pilots, and controllers managing busy train operations. On the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor, women operate semi high-speed Namo Bharat trains, overcoming initial challenges. In Mumbai, women railway protection force personnel ensure passenger safety on crowded suburban platforms. These developments highlight growing female participation in India's railways, contributing to operational efficiency and passenger security.
