Assam’s Migom Doley received the
prestigious Ati Vishisht Rail Seva Puraskar for his dedication and exemplary
services.
This honour is in acknowledgment of his
commendable work during the evacuation of stranded passengers caught in the
aftermath of a massive landslide that struck the Lumding-Badarpur hill section
in May last year.
Doley’s commitment and quick response
played a significant role in the successful evacuation operation, ensuring the
safety and well-being of those trapped in the hills.
In another remarkable accolade, Senior
Divisional Signal and Telecommunication Engineer Narendra Singh has been honoured
with the Ati Vishisht Rail Seva Puraskar for his groundbreaking work in railway
safety.
Singh’s pioneering efforts were centered
around the commissioning of the Intrusion Detection System at the
Madarihat-Carron section spanning 37.40 kilometers under the Alipurduar
Division.
This innovative system, designed to save
elephants from potential accidents, represents a first-of-its-kind initiative
in the history of Indian Railways.
