Why Are Railway Accidents Being Passed Off As Sabotage?

Indian Railways is facing a crisis with frequent train accidents, raising concerns about infrastructure, maintenance, and safety. The recent accident in Kavaraippettai, Tamil Nadu, where a passenger train collided with a stationary freight train, is similar to the Balasore accident, raising questions about operational and maintenance failures. Railway authorities attribute...

the accident to sabotage, but experts point to equipment failure or human error as more likely causes. A 2022 Parliamentary report revealed that derailments were a major cause of accidents, with slow track renewal, staff failures, and equipment failures cited as key contributing factors. The frequent accidents and lack of accountability for responsible officials raise serious questions about the railway's ability to ensure passenger safety.

Indian Railways ek bada crisis se jaan rahi hai. Har mahine teen badi train accidents ho rahi hain. Is saal ke pehle panch mahino mein 18 accidents ho chuke hain. Freight aur passenger trains dono hi accidents mein involve hain. Isse track maintenance aur purani infrastructure, inefficient signalling aur bridges...

aur tunnels ki sahi dekhbhal na karne par sawal uthte hain. Tamil Nadu mein Kavaraippettai mein, Mysuru - Darbhanga Bagmati Express ek stationary freight train se takraya, jisse nau passengers ko chot lagi. Railways is accident ko sabotage ka case bol rahi hai aur claim kar rahi hai ki kisi ne interlocking safety system se chhed-chhad ki thi. Lekin ek senior railway official ne bataya ki yeh accident June 2023 mein Odisha mein Balasore mein hue accident jaisa hi hai, jismein teen trains takrayi thi aur 296 logon ki maut hui aur 1000 se zyada log zakhmi hue. Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi ne bhi October 11 ko hue accident ke baare mein tweet kiya aur kaha ki yeh accident Balasore accident se milta-julta lag raha hai. Alok Verma, railways ke retired chief engineer ne bataya ki Kavaraippettai mein hua accident railways ki operation aur maintenance mein kami ka saaf case hai. Unhone railway minister aur railway board se puchha ki kaise Balasore jaisa accident phir se hua, lekin authorities apni galtiyan chhupaane ke liye sabotage ka bahana bana rahe hain. Media mein 18 October ko aayi report ke mutabik, railways officers ne Commissioner of Railways Safety, AM Chowdhary ke saamne kaha hai ki train ke guzarne se thodi der pehle chhe bolts aur nuts nikal diye gaye the. Train ke loco pilot ne bataya ki unhone green signal dekha lekin unhe samajh nahin aaya ki train loop line mein kaise chali gayi. CRS report abhi awaited hai, aur jab tak yeh report nahin aati, tab tak accident ke karan ke baare mein kuchh bhi kehna jaldbazi hogi. Verma ne kaha ki railway authorities pichhle panch saalon se 'sabotage' ka dhyan bhatkane wala theory pesh kar rahi hain. Lekin Commissioner of Railways Safety (CRS) ke reports, jinhone in accidents ki jaanch ki hai, yeh batate hain ki zyadatar accidents equipment failure ya human error ki wajah se hote hain. Verma ne railway authorities se puchha ki kitne railway officials ko punish kiya gaya hai aur jab itni bar accidents ho rahe hain, to kabhi kisi ko nahin hataaya gaya? 2022 mein, Parliamentary Standing Committee on Railways ne 2017-2021 ke beech hue accidents par ek report di thi. Is period mein 244 'consequential rail accidents' mein se 184 accidents derailment ki wajah se hue. Derailment ki ek wajah railways dwara track renewal ki slow pace hai. Is period mein railway staff ki galti se 164 accidents hue aur equipment ki failure se 15 accidents hue. Is period mein sabotage ki wajah se sirf three accidents hue, lekin report mein ye nahin bataya gaya ki is sabotage ke peeche kaun tha. Jab railway authorities accidents ke liye sabotage ko wajah bata rahi hain, to is sabotage ke details ka kya proof hai?

These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
