Sometimes a cylinder on the railway track, sometimes an iron rod… who wants to harm the railways?


New Delhi : Near Bilhaur railway station in Kanpur, UP, the loco pilot of Kalindi Express applied emergency brakes after seeing a cooking gas cylinder placed by unknown people on the track. This averted a major accident. The train was going from Prayagraj to Bhiwani. It was fortunate that the cylinder did not get stuck in the engine and explode, otherwise a major accident could have occurred. The train could have derailed due to the sudden emergency braking. Apart from the damaged cylinder, many suspicious things including a bottle filled with petrol and matchsticks have also been recovered near the incident spot. Police say that a conspiracy was hatched to derail the train. Police have detained two people in this case.

Not the first incident of conspiracy

This is not the first incident of such conspiracy on railway tracks. In the last few months, incidents of trains derailing have been reported in different parts of the country. In these incidents, heavy objects are being deliberately placed on the tracks with the intention of disrupting rail operations. Last month, 20 coaches of the Ahmedabad-bound Sabarmati Express train derailed on August 17 between Kanpur and Bhimsen Junction of Jhansi Railway Division. This accident also occurred after hitting a heavy object allegedly placed on the tracks by some anti-social elements. The driver said that a big stone hit the train’s engine, due to which the ‘cattle guard’ installed in its front part to protect from animals got badly damaged and bent.
