despite modernization efforts in electrification and track infrastructure. The accident highlights the urgent need for implementation of the Kavach system, an automatic train protection system designed to prevent collisions. The Kavach system, introduced in 2011, aims to automatically activate the braking system when two trains are approaching on the same track, preventing collisions. The system was successfully tested in 2022 and is currently being implemented by three companies.
