Kolkata: With a view to ensure better security of lady passengers travelling on Howrah-Kharagpur-Midnapur suburban section of South Eastern Railway during night hours (from 20:00 hrs to 24:00 hrs), the RPF Team of SER, under the guidance of Sri D B Kasar, IG/PCSC has devised  a new security initiative, ‘Convoy Night Falcon’.

The procedure is as follows:

Ø The lady passengers requiring immediate help may call on Mobile number 9002081727.

Ø Lady RPF personnel will provide a google link through which the said lady passenger can join the convoy of around 12-14 lady RPF staff posted at Howrah, Santragachi, Uluberia, Mecheda, Panskura, Balichak, Kharagpur & Midnapur and also mobile lady RPF team.

Ø They all will be visible to each other, the passenger can show the inside situation of the coach.

Ø If required, RPF staff will attend.

Ø The lady passenger can continue with the convoy till she feels secure or till she reaches her destination station.

Joining of lady passengers with the RPF convoy of 12-14 lady staff spread over the entire suburban jurisdiction will provide a sense of security and psychological comfort.

The online availability of security help and immediate presence of RPF will act as deterrent to the nuisance creators/criminal minded persons.
