Central Railway to Expand Emergency Medical Rooms at 43 Mumbai Suburban Stations
Central Railway plans to establish emergency medical rooms (EMRs) at 43 major suburban stations to enhance medical assistance for passengers. Currently, 12 EMRs operate, managed by both the medical and commercial departments, with some awaiting drug licenses or construction completion. The expansion follows a commuter request and aims to address rising safety concerns, including increased incidents of passengers falling from moving trains. Tenders and an e-auction are underway to select agencies for managing these facilities, aligning with Bombay High Court directives.
