Railways to implement AI-based surveillance system on 700-km tracks to prevent elephant deaths
Wednesday, 29 November 2023 An AI-based surveillance system to prevent elephant deaths on railway tracks will be installed on 700 kilometres of route passing through forest areas, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said on Wednesday. "We have identified forest areas in Assam, West Bengal, Odisha, Kerala, Jharkhand and some parts of Chhattisgarh and Tamil Nadu which are home to elephants. This AI-based surveillance system will be implemented in these areas which can alert loco pilots well in time about the presence of elephants on tracks," the minister said.
Ashwini Vaishnaw criticized the opposition in Lok Sabha for questioning railway safety, highlighting their failure to implement Automatic Train Protection during their 58-year rule. He contrasted the current significant reduction in accident rates with previous periods, accusing the opposition of hypocrisy and spreading misinformation through social media. Vaishnaw questioned the opposition's motives, suggesting they might be attempting to instill fear among the millions of daily railway passengers in India.
