Live – Odisha faced a big train accident yesterday evening around 6PM IST, As per history it’s one of the biggest trains accident in 20 years. Lot of high profile govt officials visited the place Naveen Patnaik , Narender Modi , Ashwini Vaishanw and many more. Govt announced 10 Lakh for the family who lost their person and 2Lakh for the person who got serious injury.
The locals helped people to come out and rescue operations however NDRF team and other required help has been reached. this was an very massive accident on seeing from inside the trains the track has been got inside the train coach and it have crossed surface of coach and roof of the coach from this you can imagine how the accident was.
Many of the trains has been cancelled from both sides , Howrah and yeshwanthpur also from Odisha .As per current update 27 trains from Howrah have been cancelled not sure about yeshwanthpur. The reason is track have been damaged and still coaches of trains on track due to which trains have been cancelled, request to all the passengers please check for the train update and leave for station.
I personally know about Howarh express because my friends were going to their hometown with this train. The trains which crossed or go to Howarh ,Patna , Odisha side most of the passengers are local one who go for the work in another state for living and earning some money. I have seen that in one coach 150 people use to sit and travel due to lack of getting reservation people use to take waiting ticket and some people take general ticket and use to travel this is my experience some time i also have did some. Based on this I can say some more death count can come also as all we know we never get correct count in these cases.
