‘Train bounces like table tennis ball’: Congress MP Manish Tewari flags 'dangerous' Delhi-Chandigarh rail route

Congress MP Manish Tewari has raised alarms regarding the Delhi-Chandigarh rail route, describing it as 'dangerous' due to its poor condition. In a recent statement, he highlighted that the train experiences significant jolts, comparing its movements to that of a 'table tennis ball.' Tewari's remarks come in light of increasing safety concerns for passengers traveling on this route. He has directly called on Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to take immediate action to address these issues. The railway route has faced criticism for its inadequate infrastructure, leading to fears about passenger safety. Tewari's advocacy draws attention to the broader challenges faced by the Indian railway system, which has been under scrutiny for maintenance and safety standards. His call for urgent intervention underscores the need for governmental oversight and improvements in railway services to ensure the safety and comfort of commuters.
