Petitioner: Petition Voice started on April 3, 2009
In Mumbai local trains, a few coaches are reserved especially for women passengers. However this happens to be the last coach, position next to the officer who gives the Train Signal.
This raises the concern of security of women passengers in cases of malfunctions of train, derailment, disconnection of the coach from the engine, accidents from front or back, etc. Also the women passesngers have to walk all the way to the ends of the train to board the coach.
It would be great if this ladies' coach is positioned towards the middle of the local trains in the name of convenience and safety.

I oppose this petition. No one is special to train. It can be male or female. I don't even support current 33.3% reservation system. When the media says, 'Women are no way inferior to men', when 'chairman' can be changed to 'chairperson' , when they can do anything a man can do, I (strongly) feel there is no need even to think of this petition.
Here is my explanation for every sentence:
This raises the concern of security of women passengers in cases of malfunctions of train, derailment, disconnection of the coach from the engine, accidents from front or back, etc.
Explanation: Does this mean, men can be dead but women should be alive? Does this mean, women are superior to men?
Also the women passesngers have to walk all the way to the ends of the train to board the coach.
Exp: Can't they? What if they walk? If they don't want to walk, what's the need to go out? Let them be home. As I already told, all are same for train. I support separate coaches for women just for the reason that, they may face naughty teasers. Otherwise, I don't even support this.
Regarding this petition, this seems to be just
Note: I'm not against women. I don't mean they are not supposed to do anything.
What I feel is, women are equivalent to men. Not inferior, not even superior..! Just equal. Let's not
support this VIP treatment for women. They are just some other human beings. Nothing more.
