Mumbai Commuters Raise Safety Concerns at Kalwa; Railway Disputes Incident Numbers
A commuter group in Mumbai has raised safety concerns at Kalwa, alleging four passengers fell from running local trains over three days due to overcrowding and restricted access near the Kalwa car shed. They have urged Central Railway to investigate and take corrective action within 15 days, threatening protests otherwise. Central Railway disputes the number of incidents, confirming only one fall and stating unauthorized boarding at the site has been stopped. The issue has also revived calls to reopen Parsik Station as a suburban halt.
