गोरखपुर रेलवे जंक्शन के प्लेटफार्म पर पलटा टैंकर, रेल संचलन पौने दो घंटे प्रभावित

On Tuesday, a water tanker overturned on platform number one at Gorakhpur Junction, damaging the platform and blocking track access. The incident forced the shifting of platforms for the Vaishali, Bagh, and Darbhanga Clone trains, disrupting train operations for almost two hours. The tanker was brought in to drain water accumulated...

on the rail tracks without proper authorization or notification. The railway administration has ordered an investigation and promised disciplinary action against those responsible. The incident occurred after the Vande Bharat Express was delayed due to rainwater on the tracks. Despite this, the Chief Health Inspector, without permission, directed a water tanker to platform number one at around 3:50 PM. The tanker driver parked it near the GRP police station, and as it was being removed after draining water, the platform collapsed, causing the tanker to overturn. Half of the tanker ended up on the track, just as a Clone Express train was approaching. Officials swiftly changed the platforms for three trains to platform number two. It took almost two hours to remove the tanker using a hydraulic crane and repair the damaged platform. Train operations resumed at around 6:30 PM. The Chief Public Relations Officer (CPRO) confirmed an investigation is underway and assured action against those found responsible.

track pe jama pani nikalne aaya tha, par bina kisi ko bataye ya permission liye platform pe laa diya gaya. Rail administration ne isko serious lete hue jaanch ke order diye hain aur responsible logo par action bhi karenge. Vande Bharat Express, track pe pani ke wajah se 10 minutes late chali. Ispe gussaa aate hue, station management ne bina permission ke, 3:50 PM pe, Chief Health Inspector ne platform number ek pe water tanker bhej diya. Driver ne GRP station ke paas, platform pe tanker park kar diya. Pani nikalne ke baad, tanker jaa hi raha tha ki platform ka patthar tut gaya aur tanker palat gaya. Tanker ka aada hissa track ki taraf aa gaya, jab ek Clone Express train aa rahi thi. Officials ne jaldi se, teen trains ke platform change karke, platform number two pe kar diye. Almost two ghante ki mehnat ke baad, tanker ko hydraulic crane se hataaya gaya aur platform ki repair bhi kari gayi. Trains 6:30 PM ke baad chalna shuru hui. CPRO ne confirm kiya ki jaanch chal rahi hai aur responsible logo par action liya jayega.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
