The initiative aims to reduce energy consumption and save more. This system has been started at Jabalpur, Bhopal and Narsinghpur stations of Western Railway. This information was given by the Ministry of Railways through a tweet.

According to the railways, these battery-powered people will help in saving diesel as well as protecting the environment.
