On Sunday, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut raised serious concerns regarding the accountability of the Railway Minister following a stampede at Mumbai's Bandra railway station that left nine passengers injured. This incident has reignited discussions about railway safety under the current government.
Raut pointed out that since Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government began its third term, there have been over 25 significant railway accidents across the country, resulting in more than 100 fatalities. He expressed frustration at what he perceives as a lack of accountability for these tragic incidents. "Since the Modi government has taken power for the third term, and with the railway minister at the helm again, we have seen more than 25 major railway accidents occurring, claiming over 100 lives," he stated while addressing reporters.
