Dibrugarh Express suffers horrific train accident at Gonda as bogeys get derailed


 A horrific train accident occurred in Gonda, Uttar Pradesh. According to initial reports, 10-12 carriages of the Dibrugarh Express, which was traveling from Chandigarh to Dibrugarh, derailed. The railway authorities have confirmed that two people have died and eight others have been injured. There are concerns that the death toll may rise.


The accident happened on Thursday around 2:30 PM near the Jilahi station, between Gonda and Mankapur. One of the air-conditioned carriages was severely damaged.


Pankaj Singh, the Chief Public Relations Officer of North Eastern Railway, stated, "The Dibrugarh Express met with an accident between Motiganj and Jilahi near Gonda. The cause of the accident is under investigation. Currently, rescue operations are ongoing. The exact number of casualties will be confirmed shortly. The injured are being transported to nearby hospitals."


The specific cause of the accident is not yet clear. The Uttar Pradesh government has already sent rescue teams to the site. Efforts to rescue passengers trapped in the wreckage are being carried out with urgency. Several individuals have already been taken to nearby hospitals.


Following this accident, the routes of several trains have been altered. These include the 12557 Saptkranti Express, 12553 Saharsa-New Delhi Vaishali Express, 13019 Howrah-Kathgodam Bagh Express, 15273 Raxaul-Anand Vihar Satyagrah Express, 12565 Darbhanga-New Delhi Bihar Sampark Kranti Express, 12555 Gorakhpur-Bathinda Gorakhdham Express, 15707 Katihar-Amritsar Amrapali Express, 14673 Jaynagar-Amritsar Shaheed Express, 5094 Gonda-Gorakhpur Passenger, and 5031 Gonda-Gorakhpur Passenger.


Exactly one month ago, on June 17, the Down Kanchanjunga Express met with an accident. Just as the effects of that horrific train accident were beginning to fade, another train accident occurred. Following this Thursday afternoon's accident, the Congress party has instructed its workers to stand by the injured passengers.
