After guards of the Western Railway staged a protest on Monday evening, 20 train services were cancelled. The guards refused to report to work after they were asked to work for additional hours. “There is already a vacancy of guards in the system. Upon that, if we are asked to increase over time, it increased the load. The railways should hire staff soon,” a railway official said.
