India train crash: More than 260 dead after Odisha collision – BBC News
At least 261 people have been killed and 1,000 injured in a crash involving three trains in India’s eastern Odisha state, officials have said.
One passenger train derailed on to the adjacent track and was struck by an incoming train on Friday, also hitting a nearby stationary freight train.
A massive rescue operation was launched, with hundreds of emergency services searching the wreckage.
It is India’s worst train crash this century and the cause is not yet clear.

Plans announced by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to send asylum seekers who arrive in the UK to Rwanda in Africa have been described as “chilling”, “cruel” and “immoral” by charities and politicians.
Boris Johnson said the £120m pilot scheme would “save countless lives”. He claimed it would break the business model of “vile people smugglers”.
The scheme would initially focus on single men arriving on boats or lorries in the UK. They would be sent on a 4,000-mile trip to Rwanda where they would be processed and, if granted asylum, be offered long-term accommodation in the African country.
The UK Home Secretary Priti Patel, who travelled to the Rwandan capital Kigali to sign the deal, said the “vast majority” of those arriving in the UK “illegally” would be considered for relocation to Rwanda.
More than 160 charities and campaign groups called on the UK government to abandon the plan, which they described as “shamefully cruel”, as well as unworkable and unlawful. The policy is expected to face legal challenge in the courts.
Other critics said the announcement was an attempt to distract from Boris Johnson’s political difficulties. It was unveiled shortly after he was found guilty of criminal conduct for breaking his own lockdown rules, with parties in Downing Street at the height of the Covid pandemic.

The Prime Minister has told the Mayor of Greater Manchester that he is prepared to intervene and impose the highest level of coronavirus restrictions on the region if they can’t reach an agreement.
The Mayor, Andy Burnham, is seeking a bigger package of financial support for businesses that would be forced to close as a result of the Tier 3 restrictions.
He has told Boris Johnson that local leaders are ready to meet the government at any time to seek agreement. Manchester has some of the highest levels of coronavirus transmission in the UK.
Meanwhile Lancashire has agreed to impose the highest restrictions, joining the Liverpool city region on Tier 3 — or Very High Alert.
It means no mixing between households indoors — or outdoors in certain settings including private gardens. Pubs and bars will close unless they serve a substantial meal. And people must avoid non-essential travel into or out of the area.
However there are some difference between Manchester and Liverpool, despite them both being placed at Tier 3. In Lancashire, unlike Liverpool, gyms and leisure centres won’t have to close but soft play centres and car boot sales will.
The Mayor of Liverpool says it’s “madness” to have different rules for Lancashire and he’s warned that it is “sowing confusion”.
Meanwhile people from areas of the UK with high levels of coronavirus – including Tier 2 in England – are now banned from entering Wales.

A boat carrying nearly 270 people has capsized off northern Cyprus as a search and rescue operation is under way.
The ship began taking on water and “was in danger of sinking at a location four nautical miles off Kyrenia Port,” the Turkish Interior Ministry said.
“There has been a loss of life and there are injuries,” the prime minister of the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus said.

55 million people across England will be in the two toughest levels of measures when lockdown ends next week. What’s the rationale for the new tier system? Please subscribe HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
Tougher rules for England will “strike a balance” when the national lockdown ends next week, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said.
At a Downing Street briefing, the prime minister acknowledged that the stricter three-tiered system of regional measures to tackle coronavirus would bring “heartbreak and frustration”.
Most of England will be in the toughest two levels of measures from 2 December and the system will be reviewed every two weeks, with the first review scheduled for 16 December – so an area’s tier level may change before Christmas.
Policy Editor Lewis Goodall reports and Kirsty Wark is joined by former health secretary Andrew Lansley, Labour shadow minister Cat Smith and former chair of Pizza Express Luke Johnson

Joe Biden has said he is “honoured and humbled” after winning the US Presidential election. He crossed the threshold of 270 Electoral College votes needed by winning the states of Pennsylvania and Nevada.
In a statement the President-Elect said: “In the face of unprecedented obstacles, a record number of Americans voted. Proving once again, that democracy beats deep in the heart of America. It’s time for America to unite. And to heal.”
The election has seen the highest turnout since 1900. Mr Biden has won more than 73 million votes, the most ever recorded for a US presidential candidate.
The result denies Donald Trump a second term after a divisive presidency defined by the coronavirus pandemic, bitter culture wars and social unrest.
Tina Daheley presents BBC news reporting from north America editor Jon Sopel in Washington and Nick Bryant with the Biden campaign in Wilmington, Delaware.

|ndia should get a Guinness World record for train collisions involving 3 to 4 trains (Odisha June 2023). No other country, I repeat, no other country has ever accomplished such a feat. Train collisions involving 1 or 2 trains is understandable but if 3 or 4 more trains were involved, that takes serious engineering skills. The |ndian death trap railway. |f anybody is interested in counting how many trains were involved in the Odisha train crash June 2023, here is the video of the crash site ➡ Odisha Train Tragedy: Aerial View Captures Devastation In Bahanaga. If you do not know how to search for videos by their video title on Youtube, don't blame me🤭

Although it has an edge ahead of China in terms of population and potential labor demand, India's biggest drawback is that it is not distributed or built in a division of labor across industries, and there is no borderless movement system that transcends land, air, sea, and border, such as ports, railways, and transportation necessary for transportation such as departure or entry.
China has been dominated by manufacturing worldwide since the Nixon administration's Pingpong diplomacy and diplomatic relations with China in the 1970s, to the extent that China has air and port infrastructure, including Hong Kong and Macao, Shanghai and northern China.
This was possible because the basic infrastructure was built. But there's no India. It's not there at all. Even if we try to build infrastructure, we wonder if we have astronomical finances. There are countless different ideologies and values, and even though it's been a long time since the caste system was abolished, there's still a caste culture.
On the surface, even though there are many labor demands and age groups such as population, the so-called purchasing power level for payment is very low. It's very different from China.
In the case of India, the local government or the central government has no division of administrative work, and it is so poor that it cannot even confirm whether certain citizens exist, and the corruption and incompetence of the central and local governments coexist to build infrastructure, and it is questionable whether the central and local Indian people will actively cooperate and operate transparently.
Many advanced countries with a presence are well-managed by their citizens, inquiring about crime details, such as minors and adults, or having data such as juvenile detention, prison imprisonment, fines, or probation, but most of the developing countries, such as India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America, are unable to confirm whether the person is a criminal or not.
On the contrary, not only India but also all developing and poorest countries often overlook whether they are criminals or involved in crimes that undermine or threaten the order of their allies, including Western countries, such as sex offenders, human trafficking, arms trafficking, drug trafficking and terrorist crimes.
For humans, the basic assessment and standard is that higher education or professional skills are completely the latter, and the most basic is whether they have experience in crime, civil or criminal punishment.
In a country with presence or common sense, it is fundamental to evaluating a person, and I wonder whether we can trust a country called India, which produces a dissident and international sex offender or sits on the sidelines.
If you say you are not a rapist, sex offender, or a criminal or family member, you will believe me if you cut the articles of association with a knife and swallow them in your mouth without hesitation.

To me, this is like the U.S. gun crimes, it's not act of god and is preventable, as long as the Indian government invest money into their rail networks, until then, this sort of accident will carry on happening.
