Because of a railway staffer’s presence of mind and quickness, the near possible train mishap was avoided at Manjuri Road station under Bhandaripokhari police limits in Bhadrak district yesterday.
According to a source, there was a boulder stuck in the middle of the interlock at Manjuri Road station. It was enough to derail a train. Had it happened, the pictures would have been different altogether.
However, a railway staffer could see it and alerted the concerned officials. In no time, the boulder was removed.
In this regard, the station manager has lodged a complaint with the RPF. When contacted, RPF inspector Dillip Kumar informed their investigation is underway.
It is pertinent to mention here the triple train mishap that occurred on June 2 evening claimed 288 lives and injured over 1000 people and people are still struggling with the post-mishap difficulties like identifying the bodies of their near and dear ones. "
