Railway Punctuality BZA: New app launched for real-time train monitoring and delay alerts
Indian Railways has introduced a new internal Android application called Punctuality BZA to keep a close watch on train timings. Developed by the Vijayawada Division of South Coast Railway (SCoR), this app helps railway staff monitor train movements and delays instantly on their mobile phones.
What are the key features of Punctuality BZA app
- Automatic alerts are sent when a train is delayed by more than 15 minutes.
- It provides section-wise train status and Late Train Monitoring (LTM).
- The app includes a Punctuality Assessment Module (PAM) for detailed statistics.

How will this app help railway operations
The app removes the need for staff to rely on desktop systems and the traditional ICMS web portal, which required multiple screens and frequent OTP logins. According to PRO Nusrat M. Mandrupkar, officials and controllers can now monitor train movement from anywhere.
DRM Mohit Sonakia stated that real-time data will allow officials to take quick decisions and intervene on time. This shift to digital monitoring reduces manual paperwork and lets field staff focus more on passenger safety and services.
