Measures Post Balasore Incident – GS Paper 3 – Disaster Management

  1. Railways into accelerating the overhaul of all stations’ signaling equipment. To do this, the system must be switched from using traditional relay interlocking to using electronic interlocking technology.
  2. The Balasore accident happened as a result of human intervention in signalling machinery containing multiple copper wires. The renovation plan calls for swapping out the copper wires used in electromechanical systems for optical fibre utilised in fully electronic systems. 
    1. Unlike optical fibres, which do not require physical handling at many places but instead transfer light signals across great distances, copper cables allow electricity to easily move through them.
  3. Revamp would entail the installation of solid state point object controllers,’ which are computer chip-based controls that significantly lower the likelihood of Balasore-like mishaps. 
    1. The quantity of wire, location boxes, and cabling decreases once you have an object controller. 
    2. These object controllers are linked to points, signals, and track circuits through optical fibre, eliminating the need for intermediary locations. 
    3. The object controller will enter a set down mode if any changes are made to it. It will be able to tell if someone accidentally reverses a connection.
