Odisha Tragedy: Rule Out Sabotage

Sabotage can be ruled out as a cause of this accident. Officials say that only two persons have access to the signal relay room.

The Station Manager has one set of keys and the Signal Maintainer the second.

#OdishaTrainAccident

The signal room can only be opened when both the locks are opened together.
The room is a secure, heavily guarded room with no scope for outsiders to enter. And the relay can only be set from inside this room.

#OdishaTrainAccident
#FarmersProtest

Besides, only someone with knowledge of the signalling system can make a change to the switch.
So sabotage is extremely difficult. And if an attempt is made to tamper with the wiring from the outside, the signal will turn red.
A signal isn’t a fish plate that can be removed.

In #Bihar a ₹1717 Crore under construction #BhagalpurBridge collapsed for SECOND TIME!!

Don't you dare to blame कुशासन बाबू @NitishKumar for it! He is a Secular+Socialist who has many such ACHIEVEMENTS to his Credit.

7 BRIDGES HAVE COLLAPSED IN LAST 1 yr!

🔸May 16: an under-construction road bridge in #Bihar ’s Purnia district collapsed 4 hours after concretization.
Reason: Low-quality materials & cement
🔸March 19: British-era road bridge collapsed in Bihar’s Saran district. Reason: No maintenance & Excessively Loaded trucks.

#BreakingNews | Massive disclosure made by Union Railways Minister #AshwiniVaishnaw on the 'criminal angle' in #OdishaTrainAccident

'Those behind the criminal activity will be identified soon. Settings of the point machine were changed'

"Root cause of accident identified, will try to restore track today. Commissioner of railway safety has investigated and we have identified the cause of the incident and the people responsible for it... It happened due to a change in electronic interlocking”.:
@AshwiniVaishnaw

Did someone deliberately tamper with settings to trigger this tragedy?

1. Yesterday, while West Bengal CM (with doubtful basic educational credentials) was demanding resignation of the fine technocrat Railway Minister of India,

her State Govt went to the #SupremeCourt appealing for a stay on the #CalcuttaHighCourt order of CBI probe of

#recruitmentscam in West Bengal's municipalities too

WB expected a fast hearing of such appeal

Supreme Court rapped them

Said, no fast hearing,not before July 3

Added that the accused people in such scam could have come, but how could the State Govt appear to halt such probe?

As the Solicitor General opposed West Bengal Govt's appeal,

GoWB stated SG knew nothing about this case, how could he oppose?

SG said he was aware of the #recruitmentscam in the education sector & hence, could legitimately oppose

The top Court didn't grant West Bengal Govt

1/5.. #OdishaTrainAccident .. How the dice rolls and how PM @narendramodi responded to the tragedy.. The accident reportedly happened at 18.55 on June 2nd. It took 12 hours for Modi to realise the impact and cancel his Vande Bharat ribbon cutting sked for June 4.. hes VERY QUICK!

2/5.. #OdishaTrainAccident .. Having cancelled the VB ribbon cutting.. @narendramodi then had to do something to convey he is looking into the train crash.. so he holds a "high level" meeting with cameras & his PR guys circulate the imagery.. so that you know hes on the job..

3/5.. #OdishaTrainAccident The PR guys tell @narendramodi the imagery of his "high level" meeting invoked more mocking .. after all.. the mockery wasnt unfair.. for a man who ribbon cuts VB trains, goods trains and Twitter handles.. A lukewarm meeting wasnt enough for the irony..

Thread on #OdishaTrainAccident :-

Why does it feel the same like a horrible incident that happened in the past (27/02/2002) Godhra Kand ?
Is there any linkage of some organization behind this incident ?
OR
It was pre-planned ? (1/6)

Why are the opposition leaders spitting venom against Modi Gov in the US conference ?

OR

The Kavach System Fails due to technical faults ?
OR
Due to Human Fault ?

Let's understand the mechanism of changing the route of the railway track ! (2/6)

There are switches in the tracks, with moving parts that lead the train to a particular side.
The Arrangement basically has a pair of rails linked to each other.

The Railroad switch can only be in one position at a time locked or open. (3/6)

Waking up to one of the worst #TrainAccident is surely tragic but what's necessary is to find out the perpetrators and know the facts. Clearly this is something unheard of.

In the thread sharing couple of facts that arise suspicion indicating sabotage from external forces.

👇

Just 3 years back Indian railways reported FY2019-20 as its safest year owing to Zero passenger deaths.
This was due to increased safety measures and wide range of other initiatives undertaken. Come today - We have on our hands the deadliest derailment in Indian Railways history.

Last Month GOI is proudly mentioning the pace of work undertaken for complete electrification of Railways which would make us the largest Green Railway in the world. We are set to achieve it by 2024. Compare it to other nations in world US - 1%, China - 72% & Europe - 60%

By now you must have heard about the horrible #OdishaTrainAccident in which 250+ passengers have lost their lives.

As a lifelong train enthusiast, I believe this is one area where I have the knowledge and contacts to gather what happened. Here's an explanation thread (1/n)

https://twitter.com/serailwaykol/status/1664658547899236357

The station where the accident happened has two mainline tracks for trains to pass thru (called Up Main and Down Main) and two side tracks called "loops" used for stopping trains temporarily.

A train is accepted into loop by moving a switch which moves a piece of track. (2/n)

Some time before the accident, a freight train was accepted into the loop. Once the train is in, the switch is moved back to point to mainline from a route relay panel. Signals along the tracks are interlinked to panel to guide the loco pilot whether to slow down or continue(3/n)

Pray for all the passengers and their families 🙏

The death toll in the #Odisha #trainaccident involving two express trains - #Bengaluru-#Howrah Express and #Shalimar-#Chennai #Coromandel Express -- and a goods train in #Balasore has risen to 238 and around 900 were injured.

#IndianAirForce (IAF) deployed Mi-17 helicopters for the evacuation of deceased and injured in the Odisha triple train accident, informed Eastern Command.

IAF is coordinating the rescue efforts with the civil administration and #IndianRailways.

While #Muslims are busy #mocking the death of #Hindus in the #TrainAccident. Here's #Odiya Hindus of #Odisha queuing at midnight to #donate #blood for the surviving #victims of the train accident. Irrespective of victim's #religion. That's the difference..
