National: In a move to ensure passenger safety and curb the growing trend of dangerous stunts on trains and railway tracks, the Railway Board has issued a stern directive to all railway zones across the country. The new rules, aimed at curbing the creation of viral "reels" on trains and tracks, mandate that cases be filed against individuals who jeopardise rail safety for social media attention.

The Railway Board has issued instructions for all its zones to file cases against those who are creating a threat to railway safety. Recently, cases of people making reels on the tracks and getting hurt have increased.  In such a situation, the government is adopting a strict attitude towards making reels on railway tracks and moving trains. If this is done, a case will be registered against the accused.
