New Delhi: Twelve wagons of a Delhi-bound freight train derailed near the Amroha railway station in Uttar Pradesh on Saturday evening, officials said. No one was injured in the accident.<\/p>\n
The mishap just comes three days after eight coaches of the Chandigarh-Dibrugarh express passenger train derailed in Uttar Pradesh\u2019s Gonda. At least four people were killed in the accident while 31 were injured.<\/p>\n
Moradabad Division\u2019s Senior Deputy Commercial Manager (DCM) Aditya Gupta said that \u201c12 wagons of a goods train derailed just after crossing the Amroha railway station around 5 pm\u201d.<\/p>\n
The Northern Railway CPRO said the accident happened at the Amroha Yard on the Ghaziabad-Moradabad section, disrupting train movement on the route.<\/p>\n
Fifteen trains have been either diverted or cancelled, railway sources said. \u201cIn the meantime, trains on this route are being diverted via Ghaziabad, Hapur and Gajraula,\u201d Gupta said.<\/p>\n
Work to restore movement of trains on the section is underway and is expected to be completed by Sunday morning, officials said.<\/p>\n
The official further said the freight train \u201cwas coming from Uttarakhand and was headed for Delhi, and the contents of the wagons which got derailed are not known\u201d.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Congress party dug up an old tweet regarding a train accident from Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and asked him to pin the post in light of such recurring rail mishaps.<\/p>\n
The tweet said \u201cHeading to the accident site\u201d and the opposition party asked the minister that he should keep it as his pinned social media post as he has to use it repeatedly.<\/p>\n
The grand old party also posted a video of the train accident and alleged that the Modi government\u2019s negligence ruined the condition of the Indian Railways.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuring the Modi government, news of train accidents used to come every few days, but now such news is coming every day. The government\u2019s negligence has ruined the railways, which are called the lifeline of the country,\u201d Congress wrote on X.<\/p>\n
In one such similar incident, a wagon of a goods train derailed between Valsad and Surat stations in Gujarat on Friday but there were no reports of anyone getting injured, a Western Railway official said.<\/p>\n
The traffic on the route, however, was affected due to the incident that took place near Dungri station around 3 pm, he said.<\/p>\n
The train was heading towards Surat.<\/p>\n
