💨 Abstract

Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw reported in the Rajya Sabha that train accidents have significantly decreased from 698 in 2005-06 to 73 today, representing a 90% reduction due to a focused emphasis on safety. The minister attributed this progress to the implementation of regular safety reviews, root cause analysis, and technology adoption during maintenance processes since the Modi government took office in 2014.
