Watch | Kamakhya Superfast Express Derails In Odisha’s Cuttack; No Injuries Reported

Eleven AC coaches of the 12551 Kamakhya Superfast Express derailed near Nergundi Railway Station in Odisha’s Cuttack district on Sunday, March 30. According to East Coast Railway (ECoR) CPRO Ashoka Kumar Mishra, there have been no reports of injuries or casualties, and all passengers are safe.

The incident occurred at around 11:45 AM in the Cuttack-Nergundi Railway Section under the administrative jurisdiction of the Khurda Road Division of ECoR.

So many train a¢¢idents, yet the Railway Minister refuses to take responsibility. Never in India’s history has there been such a shameless and careless minister ignoring passenger safety!
Resignation is the least he can do.#trainaccident pic.twitter.com/31DA7sxuFW
