Agree
What if it catches fire (discretely) and explodes and you're gone for good or bad. What if you're caught but not by the police, but by Hades. Will you take the risk?

Not everything is about legality, somethings are about common sense and for your own safety, and if you care enough, then for other's safety, too.

Disagree:Shouldn't be carried simple as that
Can be risky in any way. Like if RPF get to know, then fine will be charged obviously and chance of getting arrest. Or even if any co- passenger might complain(depends on individuals) but can be managed upto some extent. Just strictly ensure its nob is absolutely closed and safe.

Re# 6074205-2              
For dadar central IR should shift all vande bharat from CST to dadar so that these small lenght platform and pitlines can be used otherwise there is no use of running small length LHB or ICF rakes from here.

Stations like dadar central, dehradun and kalka have less platform length and pitline length which has led to reduction in no. of trains due to increase in no. of coaches.
...
more...

The worst hit stations in this case are kalka and dehradun and I guarantee that Howrah Kalka mail will be terminated at chandigarh only once its gets LHB.

I think this info is not correct sir.
MRJ coaching depot has only 2 pitlines with 12 ICF
And extension was sanctioned in 2018 still not completed.
