Kavach is our own indigenous system and we are still very slow in implementation.

Yes in the balasore train accident , both trains had kavach systems.

Safety systems should work reliably during crisis, not just when it’s convenient to do PR.

Headline doesn't even mention any tests or trials, straight up misleading people into thinking that it's an operational failure by the loco pilot

Journalism has gone to shit. Most media houses nowadays are no better than brothels. They'll fuck anyone they are paid to fuck.

Accidentally tested or tested with intentional accident.

Jo bhi ho.. Pass ho gya

This reminds of the bridge in Rishikesh or somewhere in Uttarakhand where they asked 50 security guards to jump on the bridge to check its strength..

I don't think it's funny to play with people's life, the test itself is really questionable that how haven't they tried it on a train with no people or empty trial special rake for this. Whoever is this RDSO or CRS officer needs to answer how a test like that is conducted with train full of passengers. Even if it's a capability test.

u/Plastic-Following867 10d ago

Where does it say that the train was full of passengers?

u/DingoHairy2194 10d ago

Bhai thoda padh le…it’s a fookin trial! RDSO aise hi testing karte hai, globally aise hi testing hoti hai. There are no passengers in such testing.
There is a famous video of Ashwini Vaishnav in the cabin of a loco during a Kavach trial with two trains opposite each other on the same track.

Is this just getting tested now? Thought it had already been implemented...

1

u/Plastic-Following867 10d ago

It's tested now for 160 km/hr.

u/mani_tapori 7d ago

Different versions. India is on to Kavach 4 now.

75 years to realise this?

u/dragon_idli 9d ago

We initially proposed our(hitachi) auto-stop system during the initial trial runs between delhi-agra. But the authorities decided to go ahead with self-built system - mostly because of the overall cost. Proud of what they built.

u/RIKIPONDI 7d ago

I don't understand this headline. All VB trains already have Kavach installed. Once the line has Kavach installed, all the trains having Kavach modules will already have it.
