the safe operation of trains. Kumar's concerns arise from a string of recent major accidents and the longstanding demand by trade unions to fill vacancies in safety-related roles. He emphasized that outsourcing critical safety-related tasks like track, bridge, and locomotive maintenance is not feasible. Kumar highlighted a significant increase in locomotives, loco sheds, workshops, and running rooms, all requiring additional staff for efficient operation and maintenance. He also emphasized the need for more manpower to handle the growing number of escalators, lifts, and electrified lines, and to maintain the increased passenger and freight traffic. Kumar's letter aims to secure the Ministry of Finance's approval for the creation of non-gazetted posts in crucial safety categories.
