Western Railway’s Security department is continuously striving to facilitate enhanced security and convenience of its passengers. The RPF also plays a vital role to ensure security and safety of their luggage & belongings. In this very direction, the RPF has taken a novel initiative to make it easier for the passengers to get back their lost luggage.
According to Sumit Thakur, Chief Public Relations Officer of Western Railway, many passengers forget to take all their belongings in a rush to board the train or leave the station. Under “Operation Amanat”, RPF personnel help in securing such belongings and restore them to the rightful owners. RPF retrieved more than 900 lost and missing luggage items worth around Rs 1.8 crore and returned to rightful owners in the year 2022. The left behind luggage was returned to the passengers after due verification.
