Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra also slammed the Centre over the train accident. "Train accidents have become so common in the country that despite occurring one after
another, neither any accountability is being fixed by the government nor any action is being taken," she said in a post in Hindi on her WhatsApp channel. "Crores of common people
of the country are forced to travel in trains running on the wheels of fear and chaos, risking their lives because the government has turned its back on the responsibility of safe train
travel," she said. Once again, an accident like Balasore has happened with the Mysore-Darbhanga Express in Tamil Nadu, Priyanka Gandhi said. "When will this series going on for
months stop? When will accountability be fixed," she asked. The Railway Board on Friday informed that no casualty has been reported so far in the passenger-freight train collision in
the Ponneri-Kavarapettai section in Chennai Rail Division. Dilip Kumar, Executive Director, Information and Publicity of the Railway Board, released a video message soon after the accident
saying, "We received information of collision of the Bagmati Express with a freight train at the Kavarapettai station in the Chennai Division. Rescue and relief team reached the
accident site immediately."
