A preliminary investigation into the derailment of the Chandigarh-Dibrugarh Express on Thursday, in Uttar Pradesh’s Gonda district, has found that improper fastening of the railway track may have been responsible for the accident, reported PTI.
A report of the assessment has been prepared by a five-member panel of Indian Railways officials tasked with looking into the incident.
As of Sunday, the toll from the accident stood at four deaths, with at least 31 others injured.
“The fastening of rail track was not proper due to which fastening was working ineffectively,” the news agency quoted from the panel’s report.
