Hyderabad: In view to manage the festive rush, South Central Railway (SCR) has intensified security checks at stations across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
Railway officials confirmed that the enhanced security check includes baggage scanning, random identity verification, and increased patrolling on platforms where the special trains are due to arrive. Extra personnel from the Railway Protection Force (RPF) have been deployed, with scanners installed at key entry points in Hyderabad and Charlapalli.
Officials stated that the checks are intended to stop the carrying of restricted items and to ensure passengers board the correct coaches, as the specials are running with limited services on selected dates.
