Around 15 people were killed and 50 injured as a goods train rammed into the rear-end of Kolkata-bound Kanchangunga Express. This brought back memories of the Balasore tragedy – the worst rail accident in decades. Reportedly, human error has been cited as the cause of the accident. Questions have been raised on the safety mechanism of the Indian Railways. Opposition leaders, meanwhile, slammed Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and demanded his resignation.
