Fear in the minds of passengers after the accident

 

Vaishali Bhattacharya, a passenger aboard the Kanchanjunga  Express train that reached Sealdah railway station, said that she was in the S-7 bogie when the train crashed.

The central government is waiting for people to die: Firhad Hakim

 

After talking to the passengers, Kolkata Mayor Firhad Hakim talked to the media. He said that a help desk has been set up for the convenience of the passengers. All the employees of the Transport Department, Ministers and Secretaries are here. All the injured are undergoing treatment. During this, he also targeted the central government. Hakim said that the BJP-led central government is not doing anything. They are playing with the lives of the people. The people sitting in the central government are waiting for people to die by not paying attention to this issue. All this is because the BJP government wants to privatize the railways.
