The women employees working at this station have been trained to manage all operations at the station. CCTV cameras and sanitary napkin vending machines have also been installed at the all-women railway station. Five other stations - Ajmer, Udaipur, Abu Road, Bikaner and Sadulpur - have samitary napkin vending machines.
