Firozpur railway division is one of the six railway divisions under the jurisdiction of Northern Railway zone of the Indian Railways.[1] It was formed on 14 April 1852 and its headquarters are located at Firozpur in the state of Punjab, India.[2][3]
Delhi railway division, Ambala railway division, Lucknow NR railway division and Moradabad railway division are the other railway divisions under NR Zone headquartered at New Delhi.[4][5]
Among all the divisions of Northern Railway zone, Firzopur railway division has some of the dirtiest and most ill maintained trains, and is also infamous for haphazard non-sequential coach compositions. This has been a cause of grave concern for many passengers.[citation needed]
