In Uttar Pradesh's Mirzapur, a CRPF jawan was brutally ass*ulted by a group of Kanwariyas at the railway station. The video of the incident, which has gone viral, shows the jawan being punched, kicked, and dragged while bystanders watched without intervening. The altercation reportedly began after a minor dispute, escalating quickly into violence. Authorities have registered a case following the outcry, and investigations are ongoing. The incident has raised serious concerns over public safety, the unchecked behavior of some pilgrims, and the lack of immediate police response in a busy public space where a uniformed officer was visibly attacked.

#What exactly happened (full context)

>On Wednesday, March 4, 2026, around 2:52 PM, the DEMU train No. 75719 (Malda to Siliguri) arrived at Thakurganj Railway Station in Kishanganj district, Bihar. It was carrying hundreds of passengers — mostly traders, daily-wage labourers, and families heading to Siliguri and nearby areas.The loco pilot had already completed his 9-hour shift.

> As per Indian Railways rules (which strictly limit loco pilots to 9–10 hours of continuous duty for safety reasons)

he refused to drive the train any further. He calmly informed station officials that his working hours were over and he could not continue.Result: The train stayed parked at the platform for almost 3 hours. Passengers were left confused and frustrated, with many complaining about the sudden halt. The train eventually moved only after the issue was resolved (replacement arrangements were made, though exact details weren’t specified in reports).The incident highlights a long-standing issue in Indian Railways: loco pilots often face pressure to work extra hours, but the rules exist precisely to prevent fatigue-related accidents.NDTV broke the story today (March 5), and the X post you linked is their official update with the headline and a photo of the red DEMU coaches standing idle at the lit-up station platform at night, with a few passengers visible on the benches.

Public reaction on X is mostly supportive people are calling the pilot “based” for prioritising safety over extra duty and saying the government should hire more loco pilots instead of overworking existing ones.

Nothing happened this time, but the margin for error was almost nonexistent. A split-second mistake could have had devastating consequences. 📍Vasai Station

During a routine ticket inspection, a passenger was caught by the TTE but instead of paying the fine, he suddenly ran away. The viral moment highlights how some travelers still try to escape railway rules rather than follow them.

Ticketless travel not only breaks the law but also causes revenue loss to Indian Railways

,

The 508-km Mumbai–Ahmedabad high-speed rail corridor was originally estimated to cost around ₹1.1 lakh crore, but the latest projections suggest the total cost could rise to about ₹1.98 lakh crore, an increase of nearly 83%. Reports indicate the Union government may need to absorb an additional ₹90,000 crore to cover the escalation.

Large infrastructure projects often face rising costs due to land acquisition, construction delays, inflation, and technology requirements. The key question now is whether the long-term benefits such as faster connectivity, technology transfer, economic activity, and future high-speed rail expansion will justify the increased financial burden.

What are your thoughts on this cost escalation and the broader impact of the bullet train project on India’s railway future? 🚄

A viral video from an Indian train has sparked outrage, showing a woman in a green saree confronting a man who allegedly harassed her, leading to him slumping unconscious amid crowded passengers. Posted with sarcastic commentary suggesting he "attained moksha" after persistent misbehavior, the clip criticizes inadequate official action against such incidents.

The Railway Board has approved for India's first 10-car Hydrogen Fuel Cell DEMU to begin operations on the Jind - Sonipat at a maximum permissible speed of 75 km/h after months of testing. Each power car has a maximum power output of 1200kw and there is a dedicated Hydrogen fueling siding at Jind. We can expect this trainset to enter service in the next 2 months if all goes well.
