Indian Railway has incorporated the characteristics of climate change in its own risk assessments and disaster management protocols. As an organization ready to manage risks, and ask the right questions about your assets, routes and investments. Senior management in the many public sectors have been communicating with stakeholders for shared understanding, necessary for the health and long-term sustainability of leading organisations.


The Sustainability Report of the Environment published by IR units and subsidiaries each year establishes a framework document that defines strategies and focus points in the context of climate change, problems at stake, and steps to treat them. It helps railways to support government commitments, such as the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, UN Sustainable Development Goals and national disaster management plans.


Wide variety of experiences of engineers, operators and planners in different areas and units of construction of the Indian Railways faces constantly to DIFF.
