There has been a stir in the railway administration due to incidents of stone pelting on Vande Bharat train, one of the premium train services of the country, in Himachal Pradesh for two consecutive days. Vande Bharat train has been targeted at different places in Una district of Himachal for two consecutive days on Saturday and Sunday. After two consecutive days of stone pelting incidents, Railways has written a letter to Himachal Police seeking cooperation in the investigation. It is a matter of relief that in these incidents of stone pelting, there was no harm to the passengers traveling in the train.
Conspiracy or mischief?
Due to these incidents of stone pelting, many glass panes of the train have been damaged. Is there a well thought out conspiracy behind the stone pelting or mischievous elements are behind it. Now this has become a big question. It is said that on Saturday, stones were pelted on four bogies of Vande Bharat train in Basal village near the district headquarters. On Sunday, two bogies of the train were targeted in Amb. These incidents have increased the concerns of the railway police and administration.
