Union Railway minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on Tuesday said that the railway administration is on high alert for potential attempts to sabotage trains.
The minister stated that the Central government is treating security threats with the utmost seriousness and vowed that strict action will be taken against anyone who tries to undermine rail safety.
"This is our commitment," he added.
Vaishnaw arrived here on Tuesday to inspect a Kavach-fitted train to check the efficiency of the automatic train protection system at Sawai Madhopur.
"There is dialogue going on with state governments, DGPs and home secretaries. The NIA is also involved. Strict action will be taken against anyone who tries to cause such an accident. This is our resolve," he told reporters.
He also said the entire railway administration in divisions and zones was working with vigilance with the Railway Protection Force and local state police across the country.
