Alert Locopilot Thwarts Failed Conspiracy to Derail Udaipur-Jaipur Vande Bharat Train

Gangarar-Soniyana Section, Rajasthan – An audacious attempt to derail Train No 20979 Vande Bharat, en route from Udaipur to Jaipur, has raised concerns after the train was abruptly halted at KM no 158/18, 158/19 in the Gangarar-Soniyana section. The interruption in service was the result of a deliberate act involving the placement of ballast on the railway track and the strategic positioning of two one-foot-long rods on the joggle plate at the specified kilometer mark. This perilous incident unfolded at around 09:55 hrs, falling within the jurisdiction of RPF/post/Bhilwara.

In response to this alarming incident, the Railway Protection Force (RPF) is actively pursuing the registration of a case under the Railways Act. Furthermore, PWI/Gangarar is poised to submit an official FIR to SHO/Gangarar, officially documenting the incident for a comprehensive inquiry into the matter. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the critical need for maintaining the safety and security of the railway network.
