Egmore Railway Station - People Pay their Violation Penalties on a Routine basis

Egmore Railway Station - People Pay their Violation Penalties on a Routine basis


15/07/2018, Egmore, Chennai

Evening 4 O clock to 5 O clock will be the best time to see a huge flock of the crowd standing before the Egmore railway station's magistrate court.


They are the people who got charged with penalties of violations like No Parking, Spitting in Station premises, Traveling in footboard,etc.,



Every day we can see around 200 to 300 people waiting for long hours to pay their penalties. Some of them wait from morning 4 O clock to evening 5 O clock to pay their penalty.



This is one case scenario of the place.



The other aspect is that the Railway official keeps spending their time in filling hundreds of charge-sheets during the afternoon sessions on a daily basis.

It has become like a routine activity to them.


Hence their Karma is just cycling like the same for many months. Hence everyone needs a break from this Karmic Cycle. Their eyes are filled with an anxiety that," Won't we see a day of no penalty? Won't there be a clean Railway Station?"


Suggestions to Avoid These scenarios :


1. The doorways of all the trains shall be kept closed all the time, apart from station locations, when they arrive and depart.


2. Many countries have incorporated "Fully enclosed platform edge screen doors" which can be implemented in our country also, considering the safety of the passengers.


3. Regarding the No parking penalties, the station authorities shall provide proper barricades at the entry points of the "No Parking" zones.


4. In case of "Spitting", it is the responsibility of each and every citizen that he shall not spit in public locations.
