I was on night duty in the Thane-CST second-class ladies compartment. I boarded the train from Ambernath at 8.54 pm and it reached CST at 9.45 pm. I immediately heard gunshots.

Pandarkar seemed quite nonchalant about 26/11 when he spoke with MiD DAY.

"While serving the railways for over 30 years, I have shifted many train accident victims to hospitals, and the scene at CST on 26/11 was no different. I do not get nightmares about the incident," said Pandarkar.

He does, however, acknowledge that it's unfortunate that so many innocent people died.

"My advice to those who have lost loved ones is that they should come out stronger and move on.

The only answer to terrorism is to stand united and fight," he said. Pandarkar is due for retirement next month and wants to spend the rest of his life farming.
