ECoR cautions against risky social media stunts
Orissa POST
|October 24, 2025
The East Coast Railway (ECoR) has issued a strong advisory urging citizens to prioritise safety over social media stunts and strictly adhere to railway rules during the festive season.
-
The appeal, aimed at curbing the growing trend of taking selfies or making ‘reels’ near railway tracks and promoting disciplined crowd behaviour, comes as ECoR steps up efforts to prevent accidents and ensure safe, smooth travel for lakhs of passengers.
ECoR has launched an intensive awareness drive cautioning people—especially youth and social media enthusiasts—against taking selfies, shooting videos, or performing stunts on or near railway tracks, platforms, or moving trains. Officials warned that such reckless behaviour is not only life-threatening but also a punishable offence under Sections 147 and 153 of the Railways Act, 1989, which stipulate imprisonment and fines for violators.
