Question

What is the jurisdiction of the Commission of Railway Safety (CRS)?
  • Metro Railway (Kolkata) only
  • Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) only
  • Konkan Railway only
  • All Zonal Railways in India
Answer- D
The jurisdiction of the Commission of Railway Safety (CRS) in India is All Zonal Railways. The CRS is responsible for conducting safety inspections, approving designs, and issuing certificates of safety for railway projects across all zonal railways in the country. It ensures compliance with safety standards and regulations to promote safe railway operations. While the CRS has authority over all zonal railways, specific urban metro systems such as the Metro Railway (Kolkata) and Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) may have additional regulatory bodies overseeing their operations. The Konkan Railway, as a zonal railway, falls under the jurisdiction of the CRS as well.
