Kavach 4.0

Automatic Train Protection, Made in India

Kavach 4.0 is a cutting-edge indigenous automatic train protection system developed under India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat mission to revolutionize railway safety. It is designed to prevent collisions and ensure safer, smarter train operations at speeds up to 160 kmph. By combining advanced RFID-based real-time train location tracking, continuous communication through telecom towers and optical fiber, and integration with onboard braking systems, Kavach 4.0 automatically regulates train speeds, prevents signal passing at danger (SPAD), and applies emergency brakes if necessary.

One of its remarkable benefits is enhanced safety even in challenging conditions like fog or poor visibility, where driver reliance alone is risky. The system provides signal and speed information directly inside the train cabin, reducing human error and enabling proactive control. It also operates with Safety Integrity Level 4 (SIL 4) certification, the highest rail safety standard, ensuring extremely reliable and fail-safe operation.

Kavach 4.0’s modular design includes locomotive, station, and trackside subsystems working together seamlessly, forming a telecom-like network for real-time coordination across entire rail corridors. Its adoption on high-density routes like the Delhi–Mumbai Mathura–Kota section showcases its scalability and impact in reducing accidents, injuries, and fatalities.

For rail operators and passengers, this means a safer journey, improved on-time performance, and confidence in modern railway infrastructure…
