Indian Railways turns to Kumbh experts to manage monsoon crowds at stations
Indian Railways authorities are planning to rope in crowd management experts who handle the enormous crowd at Nashik’s Kumbh Mela in order to prevent a stampede situation during the monsoon. The authorities will be deploying personnel at the entrance of stations to guide the commuters on crowding on foot over bridges and platforms.
Indian Railway staff will be making announcements regarding the crowd gathered at different points and the pace at which it is moving on microphones and speakers. Representational Image, source: Reuters
