So,  the  diesel  consumption  is  need based.
- (c)    On  the  basis  of  TRAI  recommendations,  DOT  issued  broad  directions  and goals  on  23/01/2012  for  greening  of  the  telecom  sector  by  using  Renewable Energy  Technology  (RET)  solutions  and  energy  efficient  equipments.

†1661. SHRI RAKESH SINGH:

Will the Minister of RAILWAYS be pleased to state:

- (a) whether the Government proposes to take cognizance of the trains running behind schedule at the Jabalpur station of WestCentral zone and if so, the details thereof;
- (b) whether reasons for the aforesaid delay have been identified by the Government if so, the details thereof; and
- (c)  the  measures  taken  by  the  Government  to  ensure  the punctuality of the trains?

## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS

## ( SHRI RAJEN GOHAIN )

(a) & (b) Yes, Madam. Some trains get delayed while approaching Jabalpur  station  as  the  station  yard  has  certain  operational constraints.  For example, all movements of trains between the maintenance  yard  and  the  platforms  of  Jabalpur  station  have cross  movement  infringing  the  Up  and  Down  through  lines. Though  movements  of  trains  between  maintenance  yard  and platform  lines  are  done  as  per  scheduled  path,  at  times  trains coming  to  Jabalpur  station  get  detained  outside  if  they  are running late/out of path when scheduled placement of rakes to

the platforms and vice versa is being done. Such delays are further aggravated, though rarely, when the signalling arrangements develop  technical  snag  or  other  assets  fail  even  for  a  short duration.

(c)  However,  various  measures  have  been  taken  to  minimize detention to trains at Jabalpur station such as sensitization of staff to resort to efficient and judicious movement in shunting operations, preventing asset failures and their down time by way of preventive maintenance  etc.  As  a result, there is significant improvement in originating and terminating punctuality of Jabalpur station which is 84% and 74% respectively during April-June 2016 as compared to 66% and 52% respectively during April-June 2015.
