In a move towards ensuring safety of some 10 lakh women commuters who travel by its locals, the Western Railway is likely to carry out the first trial run of closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras inside ladies compartments within a month’s time.

For long, passenger associations have been demanding surveillance cameras inside local trains. Railway sources said that presently the proposal is in planning stage but they are working on implementing it as soon as possible, most likely this month itself.
