The Union Minister for Railways Shri Piyush Goyal has appealed to citizens to avoid selfies / stunt near railway tracks.

Following is the text of Minister's statement:

“Dear Citizens,

In the last few days, I have seen news and videos in which there have been accidents of youth taking selfies or showing stunts near railway tracks. It is very disheartening to know about these accidents. You all are the future of the country and my appeal is to avoid putting your life at risk and stay alert around the railway tracks. Follow the rules & signs and pay attention while approaching rail crossings.

Jai Hind.

Piyush Goyal”
