With a view to provide better safety and security to women passenger who normally used to travel by passenger trains either alone or with minors, NFR has started earmarking a portion of the SLR coach with Pink colour. This special colour will help the women passenger to easily identify the coach in the platform even during rush hours.

SLR coaches with especially Pink coloured portion for lady passengers were placed into operation by the Rangiya Division of NFR in passenger trains bearing number55817 / 55818, 55803 / 55804 and 55809 / 55810 which run between New Bongaigaon and Guwahati. Similar earmarking has also been done in passenger train no 55895 / 55896 which runs between Rangiya and Murkongselek.

In some trains depending o­n the nature of the coach the same has been earmarked both for Lady passengers as well as Divyangjan.

NFR hopes that this new initiative will prove to be immensely beneficial for safety and security to women passenger. NFR would also like to appeal to all women passenger to use the earmarked coach if such need arises. Railway authority will also deploy RPF and Ticket Checking staff for the next few days to stabilise the new system.

NFR authority hopes that the new initiative will be well supported by all section of passengers.
