48 घंटे में ट्रैक से शरारत की दूसरी घटना, सुरक्षा पर उठे सवाल

A vacant cylinder weighing 5 kg was found on the railway track in Premnagar, Kanpur, on Sunday morning. This incident comes after a stone was discovered on the DFC track earlier. These incidents are raising concerns about security. The railway team is investigating, and the RPF has been instructed to increase...

patrolling on the track. Recently, there have been other incidents like the use of a petromax for a reel on the Prayagraj-Lucknow route and the discovery of a 3 kg stone on the DFC track near New Karachna on September 20. While these incidents haven't resulted in major accidents, the potential for a serious mishap remains. While the railway emphasizes investigations and patrols, the incidents persist. The Senior DSC of the Prayagraj division, Vijay Prakash Pandit, said the motive for these incidents can be determined only after the investigation. The DRM, Himanshu Badoni, stated that the discovery of the cylinder on the track is serious and that the police and railway are conducting separate investigations.

Kanpur ke Premnagar mein, Sunday subah, railway track par 5 kilo ka khali cylinder mila. Yeh incident DFC track par pahle mila patthar ke baad hua hai. Isse safety par sawal uth rahe hain. Railway team jaanch kar rahi hai aur RPF ko track par patrolling badhane ke nidesh diye gaye...

hain. Kuchh din pehle Prayagraj-Lucknow route par reel banane ke liye petromax ka istemaal hua tha. 20 September ki raat DFC track par New Karachna ke paas 3 kilo ka patthar mila. Sunday subah Kanpur ke karib Premnagar mein 5 litre ka khali cylinder mila. Pichhle mahine Kanpur ke karib Sabarmati express ke patri se utarne ke case mein aayi report mein engine se kisi cheez ke takrane ka ullekh tha. In ghatnaon mein koi bada haadsa nahi hua, lekin haadse ki aashanka se inkaar nahi kiya ja sakta. Railway track ki suraksha ko lekar lagatar jaanch aur gashti ki baat ki ja rahi hai. Lekin in logo ki roktham nahi ho pa rahi hai. Prayagraj mandal ke Senior DSC Vijay Prakash Pandit ka kehna hai ki saajish ya kisi ki shararat, yeh jaanch puri hone ke baad hi kaha ja sakega. RPF raat mein bhi patrolling kar rahi hai. Agar kisi ko sandigh cheez dikhe toh iske baare mein RPF aur GRP ko soochna de. Wahi, DRM Himanshu Badoni ka kehna hai ki railway track par cylinder milna gambhir hai. Iski jaanch police kar rahi hai. Railway bhi vibhagiya jaanch karega.
