At least 288 people have died in India’s worst rail accident in more than two decades, officials said on Saturday.
Two passenger train and a freight train were all involved in the accident in the east of the country, but details and the causes are still unclear.
More than 12 million people commute on India’s rail network every day.

Really sad
❤
Pathetic
hope all make peace in this world
Very pathetic. I’m speechless.
Your feelings are pathetic😂
Normal Islam produce more babies in other hand, Radical Islam produces more Terrorists, who is the responsible for 9/11 attack,
How is this related? This is why your country will never progress
@Jerry Singh which country your talking about,
Indian Railways is the worst👎👎👎
😢😢
At the same time, the Indian media is still chattering about China
@Om Soumya Mallick Indian nationalists and anti China media have hindered India’s progress. No wonder India is so poor, ranking 107 in the Global Hunger Index
@遥寄三千 5 times? Which kind of weed do you smoke bro. It maybe a bit above 3 times
@Dipanjan Mahapatra Look, I’m not putting India down. I love Indians and I wish india can learn more from the world when comes to corruption and respect ur own Kind. It’s the corruption that is holding india back.
@Eric Li can’t do anything if uneducated ministers sits in the cabinet and plays vote bank politics
@Dipanjan Mahapatra China’s GDP in 2023 is 19 trillion US dollars, while India’s GDP is 3.8 trillion US dollars. Are you low in IQ or unable to understand numbers?
Indian members of Quad. What happen to Americun warpigs lead quad defense indian from getting kill and destruction?
@Homefront sai he will.
@Homefront sai👈 will you cry help when 1000 ton train crashing you?
@Wumao 50cents Chang did Americans build the indian railways? Then why shud they poke their nose in others matter.
Few days back even Greece has faced a Train accident…would you ask European nations the same…
I can literally see the pain in your A$$ after seeing QUAD ….thatswhy you poor fellow mixing up everything…
QUAD has nothing to do with Indian railways or CHINESE CHING PING COVID …
@Homefront sai you right. Americun warpigs don’t build only know how to destroy and kill..
Modi is a hypocrite. He is acting like he cares but in reality it means nothing to him because he ordered massacres in Gujarat and is used to seeing high casualties.
Minister should resign and set a good example of how responsible they are to the people
That’s cowardice. A leader solves the problem and gets things running.
@PUSHKAR D okay then let’s wait for a similar accident next year and the minister will again solve it like before
First of all every accident does not relates politics. There was a problem in system and we can’t just blame anyone for accident. In summers iron rails melt
@Wayu We should investigate first and then if the minister is found guilty, he should be punished.
Modi is no Gunda
What?
@Dipanjan Mahapatra illiteracy
@Atheist haha
95% Indians cant afford the Japanese bullet train. This is how majority Indians will travel in near future- unhygienic, rusty coaches made with 1950s German technology and using primitive signalling.
RIP. Modi’s oil from Putler is not enough to fix these machineries and railways .
Deep condolences from Pakistan
Clearly this year will not be India’s first without a deadly train accident… I’m a train driver from Europe, India’s record deaths on the rails is unbelievable… Do something!!!
Would you think that there would be neglect from authorities? the signalling process did not work and communicated after the 1st derailment to others?
Harsh but bitter truth
Nothing can be done. They’ve been slaves to brahmins for one millennium
Ya india had around 65000km of railway in which only 2000 km of anti collision system installed…
Which is started in last year…..
@Kris Wright A similar signalling malfunction occured 2 months back, but the signal master, and the Loco Pilot cought upto it, and a frieght Derailment was stopped.
😢 hope those who past find peace
From Morocco.
I would like to convey our profound condolences to the people of India.
Our deepest sympathy and solidarity to the bereaved families of the victims and wishes for a speedy recovery for those who are wounded and those who were affected, directly or indirectly, by this calamity.
Thank you Morocco…last December we supported Morocco u19 World Cup team here….

Brazil loves you!
In foreign countries ppl die in plane crash while in india they die due to rail accidents
😂 Modi is the most fake “concerned” person I’ve ever seen. Cast him in a Bollywood movie asap. He’d be perfect for an Indian Hitler story
India would rather spend billions expensive Made in Japan HSR that is overcost , overdelay and overhype than help rebuild its failed railways really is one of the dumbest decision made just to score a political point.
India needs both. What political point? Worry abbout your Fing country.
The problem is people climbing allover the train.
Same old story by illinformed racist A holes.
bruh this not happen in india any more all of them are electric.
Disgraceful and tragic. When governments don’t perform their duties properly.
More than 3 million people travel by railway per day !!. A human or technical error can cause disaster.
@With BABA it is total failure of Modi government. First time three trains collide with each others. Don’t give silly excuses.
@KUSHAGRA VLOGS are you right bro
Condolences to the Families and friends who lost loved ones.
An omen portending the derailment of the ‘Double Engine Sarkar’ by two, if not, three engines says the nation that runs on omens and prophecies It certainly looks like divine vengeance says some A call for divine accountability say some who remember the donations forced out of them for National Disaster Relief to the PMCares Fund, under the guise of Government Authority, with automatic deductions from salaries or a written response on why not if refused. That entire collection got swiped away into a Personal Trust of Narendra Modi who then has consistently refused to provide any accounting for those monies claiming that to be beyond the purview of the Comptroller Auditor General as being donations for personal dispensation.
Nobody knows the fallout of that but a Government considered guilty of masking, nay aiding and abetting, money laundering, attacking the nation’s economic security while manufacturing hate and civi divide does not seem to have an easy time ahead of it considering the fact that Modi falsely has been projecting himself as the visionary responsible for modernizing the Indian Railways Other heads may roll for the man shirks responsibility when thinks go wrong
Sangat menakutkan transportasi di india😢
More than 3 million people travel by railway per day !!. A human error can cause disaster.
আপনি সম্পূর্ণ ভুল
My condolences and prayers for the family members .. love from the KSA.. stay strong guys..
High death rate because of India 1.5 billion population. So train always crowded 300 percent to capacity that cause more deaths.
Same old story by Ignorant illinformed racist A holes
A similar signalling malfunction occuredat the very same stretch of track 2 months back, but the signal master, and the Loco Pilot cought upto it, and a frieght Derailment was stopped.
Why this train tragedy happened?
Proper investigation should be done. 🙏
as a pakistani italian really really sad to see such things in india . may allah bless all the families who they suffered by such incident ameen
300 people around died
Hope family gets some compensate
The incident happened 5km frm my home. Painful 🙏🙏🙏
You guys in Middle East still interested in the Indian- American rail project to connect Middle East to India?
Not just for this blunder but everyone in any kind of public job or government job should be hold accountable for everything they do and get heavily penalized so that lives don’t get wasted like this. 😢 Also the citizens should be responsible and vigilant
