Railway Protection Force (RPF) has started an intensive awareness drive called ‘Meri Saheli’ aiming to provide better safety and security to women passengers in Madhya Pradesh also. ‘Meri Saheli’ initiative was launched in order to boost the security of female passengers during their journey.
To provide proactive security to female passengers, a team of Lady Constables led by an Inspector has been formed in most of the stations including Bhopal, Jabalpur and Itarsi.
Bhopal DRM Uday Borwankar informed that the teams are interacting with the female passengers at Railway Stations and briefing them about all precautions to be taken during the journey.
The passengers are also being informed about RPF Helpline No-182 for emergency and for instant help from RPF. The Mobile number of the Security Control of Bhopal division is too shared with the female passengers.
Moreover, all the ladies including the other traveling passengers have been requested to wear masks properly to avoid spreading of COVID-19. The drive is part of an ongoing initiative to facilitate female passengers in an environment in which they feel safe, secure and comfortable during their journey.
