Congress Criticizes Railway Minister for Frequent Train Accidents
Following the incident, the Congress party recalled a previous tweet from Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw regarding a train accident and urged him to keep it pinned on his social media profile due to recurrent rail mishaps.
In response, the opposition party highlighted a video of the train accident and criticized the Modi government, alleging negligence that has deteriorated the condition of Indian Railways.
“During the Modi government, news of train accidents used to come every few days, but now such news is coming every day. The government’s negligence has ruined the railways, which are called the lifeline of the country,” Congress wrote on X.
