Naxals blow up rail track, 15 diesel coach rakes on fire
M.today
Motihari, May 20: There seems to be no stopping the Naxals as early this morning, 15 diesel coach rakes caught fire in Bihar’s Motihari district after Naxals blew up a rail track between Popra and Godara railway stations causing a three-metre depression.
Three of the coach rakes were derailed and the fire that broke out early this morning is still not under control.
Three fire tenders are at the spot trying to douse the fire.
The Superintendent of Police of Motihari told NDTV that the Naxals have left behind a chit at the spot.
No loss of life has been reported, however, four Express trains have been cancelled and four others diverted.
