Why does India need a RM? Waise Bhi Vande Bharat Inaugurations ke liye toh Modiji hain hi! Other things can be managed by the bureaucrats who reach top mosts by corruptions and bribes, they can manage everything else... I think it should become a Ministry directly under the PM (like many other ministries/departments)... waste of public money... Aren't we supposed to have a "Minimum Govt, Maximum Governance" model? Ashwini Vaishnav can continue to be a Rajya Sabha MP from Odisha as long as he wants...

It's one thing to support alliance parties holding railway ministry which I as well support but resorting to these conspiracies is just dangerous. Why would rail worker compromise his ethics and job to make this point, even causing deaths in the process?! We already see a lot of vilifying of rail employees from political groups, please don't fall to this trap. This is no joke and is a very serious allegation against rail workers. Unions don't protect rail workers from consequence of tragedies like this. We have seen that often times rail workers are fired or are punished for things that are related to policy which the rail minister and superiors should have looked into , to gratify folks when such incidents happen. This will lead to a rift between the heads and the workers and smooth functioning of railways will become much more difficult.

This is some really useful information and I think this is exactly what happened. I hope it is highlighted that the whole sections signaling was not working for a long time in the news telecasts and RM has to justify why this has happened and simply can't blame it on controllers. This is a huge blunder and while signalling issue in previous Coromandel was something unpredictable, but this is something else.

So going by your poorly crafted theory, all trains accidents in the past were a conspiracy by the then opposition parties .What Utter Rubbish !! It's not the right time to drag politics into this unfortunate tragedy. Please Refrain from spreading such misinformation. Whoever is in power is liable to answer, should take responsibility , and address rail safety issues diligently.

Yes correct looking at the impact, it seems like speed was high

---

According to form T/A 912 no train should be given /issued clearance untill the block section between two stations is cleared by the prior train.After confirmation only the next train should be allowed.So maybe controllers/SM to save detention had instructed to go more than the restricted speed as the speed is definitely not near 25/30 kmph.A incident of similar nature was seen in Southern railways where T/A 602 was followed by relief loco and the officers pressured to run the loco at 50 kmph instead 15 kmph.When Loco pilot refused he was given chargesheet which was later taken back after backlash.

Lps don't take steps on there own in most cases.They know that what implications are there for not following speed restrictions.It is mostly from the officers who force them to do so for saving detentions and show good punctuality results in the zonal railways and at the board.Incident of Southern railways has been attached in reply below where LP was given chargesheet even when he followed all rules just because he disregarded his seniors instructions to break the rule.

जब तक रेल मंत्री किसी jdu या tdp के संसद को नहीं बनाएंगे, तब तक रेल कर्मचारी और विपक्ष के लोग रोज इसी तरह कुछ न कुछ ट्रेन डीरेलमेंत कराने का प्लान बनाते रहेंगे और ट्रेन डीरेलमेंत करवाते रहेंगे । रेल कर्मचारी यूनियन और विपक्ष ठगबंधन जिंदाबाद
