All the divisional officers accompanied the DS during intrusive inspection of reservation office, power van, washing line, carriage and wagon store and other related installations, according to a statement issued from DS office Tuesday.
The DS directed for provision of all facilities to the passengers coming to reservation office for obtaining tickets. “Reservation office be fully furnished and facilitated with modern amenities as its the first interface between railways and general public and plays a vital role in image building of the department,” remarked the divisional superintendent.
During his visit to Power Van, the DS was briefed at length by the officers regarding various equipments installed there. The DS called for provision of uninterrupted power supply during the full length of train’s journey from Karachi to upcountry as minor interruption, if any, not only creates inconvenience for the passengers but undermines the perception of railways’ officers.

The DS extensively examined the office record available at Station Supervisor’s office and Carriage and Wagon Depot.
