Hoping to lighten and brighten up the mood of millions of daily commuters, the Western Railway has for the first time installed LCD TV screens on a few suburban trains, an official said here on Sunday.

The WR has operationalised the TVs in eight of the proposed 20 suburban trains (rakes) which will fetch a ‘non-fare revenue’ of Rs 65 lakh per annum.

The contract has been awarded to Digitech Engineers and Computech Private Ltd., for five years and the WR will earn around Rs 3.45 crore through it, said WR Chief Spokesperson Sumit Thakur.

“This is the first time that an EMU rake is fitted with such 24″ LCD screens which will display commercial advertisements, as well as railway and public-related information to the commuters,” said Thakur.

It will aid as another medium of railways to reach messages to the people and add to the aesthetics of the coach while enhancing the travel experience of the commuters.

Currently, the feedback from commuters in the initial runs has been very positive, said Thakur.

Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader Worker Assembly Abu Asim Azmi criticized the statement of Home Minister Amit Shah and said that it is the responsibility of the Home Minister and the Central Government to take action against Bangladeshi and Pakistani infiltrators. The population of Muslims in India has increased due to Bangladeshis. This is completely wrong. The residents of West Bengal and ordinary Muslims are being targeted under the guise of Bangladeshi and Pakistanis. He said that the government is yours in many states and at the center, so how do Bangladeshi infiltrators enter from the border? What action has the government taken against those who forge their documents so far? He said that targeting Muslims under the guise of Bangladeshi should be stopped, just as Karat Soumya is trying to fake the certificates and documents of every Muslim and is targeting Muslims. He said that the government should pay attention to how Bangladeshi infiltrators infiltrate from the Indian border. This is not the job of Congress, SP or other parties. It is the job of the government to take action against Bangladeshi and Pakistanis and to bring them to justice. But Muslims should not be harassed or disturbed. He said that action is being taken against those officers who are preparing documents for Bangladeshis.
