[At least 288 people are now known
to have been killed and 850 injured
in a multiple train collision in
India's eastern Odisha state, officials say.
More than 200 ambulances were sent to the scene
in Balasore district,
says Odisha's chief secretary Pradeep Jena.
One passenger train is thought to have derailed
before being struck by another on the
adjacent track late on Friday.
It is India's worst train crash this century.
Officials say the death toll is expected
to rise further.
Indian Railways said the two services involved
were the Coromandel Express
and the Howrah Superfast Express.
Sudhanshu Sarangi, director general
of Odisha Fire Services, said that the
death toll stood at 288.
Mr Jena said earlier that more than
100 additional doctors had been mobilised.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was
distressed by the incident and his thoughts
were with the bereaved families.
"Rescue ops are under way at the site of the mishap
and all possible assistance is being given to
those affected," he tweeted.
Meanwhile, Home Minister Amit Shah labelled
the incident "deeply agonising".
One male survivor said that "10 to 15 people fell on
me when the accident happened and everything
went haywire. I was at the bottom of the pile.
"I got hurt in my hand and also the back of my neck.
When I came out of the train bogie,
I saw someone had lost their hand,
someone had lost their leg,
while someone's face was distorted,"
the survivor told India's ANI news agency.

A day of mourning has been announced in the state.]

The President said the guilty will be severely punished.

But it was a technical fault.:shrug:

Terrible mass loss of life. RIP. :(

It was a Signal Fault
that cased the Crashes.

Modi says someone will be punished?

They must be able to check
what trains are on the line,
manually - so a Fella was in Charge of that.

Ref: Times Radio Free

Can you explain, I dont get it.

there are always people around that create jokes about disasters almost immediately. It's part of the human coping mechanism

the reason so many died is they have ZERO health and safety/severe overloading

blaming a technical fault is ignoring the huge Indian Elephant in the room

I don’t think you ever will
