Posted on 11th Mar 2025 11:32 am by rohit kumar

18 passengers died in a stampede at New Delhi Railway Station on February 15, while many were injured. Taking action in the case, the Railways has transferred five officers including DRM. But in the meantime, the Railways has issued another order. The Railways has issued a notice to the social media platform X and directed it to remove 288 video links. This notice states that this is against morality as well as X's content policy. Sharing and viralizing such videos on social media can worsen the law and order situation.

 

After the notice of the Railways, social networking site X has sent a notice to all media institutions. X has written to those who share the videos, including media institutions, that the following content violates the local laws of India. However, X has described the ministry's demand as illegal and a violation of the rights of the users. X has also written in its notice that X is not able to give any kind of legal advice. But to protect their interests, users can explore options like legal advice.

 

In fact, after the stampede on February 15, the Railway Ministry wrote a letter to the social media platform X. In this letter, the Railway Ministry has asked the social networking site X to remove all the videos and photos related to the stampede at Delhi Railway Station on February 15 from its platform. The ministry has cited ethical norms behind this. In its letter, citing ethical norms and IT policy, the Railways has asked X to remove such videos in which dead bodies and unconscious passengers are seen. The ministry has asked X to remove about 250 such videos.

 

It is worth noting that a stampede broke out at New Delhi Railway Station on February 15 when a huge crowd of passengers going to Maha Kumbh had gathered there. Then there was a stampede at the station due to the delay of special trains and the announcement of changing the platform. 18 people died in this accident, while 15 people were injured. The Railways has also formed a committee to investigate this matter.
