Railway minister Piyush Goyal and Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Sunday engaged in a war of words on Twitter over Shramik special trains from Maharashtra.

Piyush Goyal took a dig at Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray through a tweet, saying the Railways was ready to send as many trains as required to states, provided they do not "return empty".

"I hope that these trains will not have to leave empty after arriving at the station like it has happened earlier. I would like to assure you that the trains you need will be available," tweeted Piyush Goyal, referring to earlier occasions when migrants did not board special trains.
