The motive is to improve the services for the passengers,” he added.

The officials will not only listen to the problems of the passengers, but will come up with solutions immediately, said Anuj Prakash. Extensive ticket checking campaign will also be launched during the fortnight so that people travelling without tickets could be fined.

Health check of the railway employees as well as the passengers travelling in the trains or coming to the station will also be the feature of the fortnight facilitation programme. “The other areas of thrust are safety awareness drives, monitoring of punctuality and cleanliness, and sanitation drives at all the stations of Ferozepur division, including main stations at Ludhiana, Jalandhar, Jammu etc,” he added.
