Loud and unnecessary announcements inside local trains have irked city rail commuters, with many stating that there is no proper mechanism to complain on the spot and get this problem fixed.

“Earsplitting announcements are being made inside a number of trains. Most of them are public-interest messages, but the sharp noise is very irritating. We usually complain to the motorman or the guard, but it does not help,” a commuter, Dhananjay Deshmukh, said.
