After the announcement of PM Modi, Railways is fully prepared to implement this plan. Many types of facilities are being provided by the Indian Railways in these trains. Railways have added additional features including four emergency windows for easy evacuation of passengers in case of emergency in the train.

 

 

A Centralized Coach Monitoring System has also been introduced for climate control and monitoring of all electrical and vital systems on the sets, a statement issued by Northern Railway said on Friday. For the convenience of the passengers, four emergency lights have also been installed in each coach of the trains, which can be used in case of emergency.
