India train crash: More than 100 bodies still waiting to be claimed – BBC News
Four days after a deadly three-train crash killed 275 people in India, a large number of bodies remain unclaimed.
At least 275 people were killed and more than 1,000 injured.
Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw suggested signal failure led to the accident, citing a “change in electronic interlocking” that sent a train on to the wrong tracks.
The deadly collision on Friday evening is India’s worst rail accident this century.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Why accident happened, and look at the explaination given by officials which is Utter nonsense. This requires a common sense which only the poor villagers of India have. The modern technology is generated and implemented by so called educated fools of moden generartion. That is the root cause. This accident is outcome and misuse of European and Americal technology used in Indian Ralways. Ask this question to GE Transportation and Siemans.

People in democratic countries should respect China’s right to choose one party system instead of two party system as one party system is more efficient to develop a country.
Both India and China are poor in 1950. 70 years later China have 45,000 kms high speed railway network while India are still using slow trains which encounter frequent incidents.
Not only India, China infrastructure is much better than US now even US is much advanced in 1950 than China. https://youtu.be/7bHpaAOpQcg

This tragedy is fundamentally the fault of the Indian government. If Indians could put aside their prejudices and cooperate with Chinese railways in good faith, instead of being lackeys to Americans, so many people would not have died

In the Indian political scenario it is the mindset that matters. Give me the right mindset things will improve dramatically. Nothing moves until mind movesBetween tall promises and petty performances the gap is unbridgeable. Like a pendulam our destiny dances from one disaster to another in a perpetual cycle of human fraities

Even afer a prolonged period of twelve years the CBI investigation into the similar accident involvinig the Jnaneswari Express has made no progress. The fate of the NIA investigation into another massive accident ended in a fiasco. What good will come out of another CBI Invesptigstion?

Indian Govt is lying about the death rate….its not 280 + its above 1000 or maybe 2000+…Plz cover this….Election are coming thats why they are hiding the death rate
..And the death rate is above 1000+…
In one single boggy there was 200+ passenger out of it only 5 or 6 survived .just imagine 17 boggy has been completely damaged just think of the death rate..
