Southern Railway Reverses Decision to Make Chennai Central Railway Station a Quiet Station

Posted on: 06/Mar/2023 6:34:02 PM
Southern Railway has withdrawn the notification that Chennai Central Railway Station will be a `quiet station`. While steps were taken to maintain a quiet atmosphere at the station by eliminating audio announcements and providing visual information through screens, there was opposition to this from various groups, including the disabled and uneducated individuals.

In response to the objections raised, Southern Railway announced that the measures implemented to maintain a quiet environment at the station have been withdrawn. Chennai Central has resumed loudspeaker announcements, providing train-related information through audio announcements once again.

This decision comes as a relief to many commuters who rely on audio announcements to keep track of their train schedules.
