At least two people died and 20 were injured when 18 coaches of the Howrah-Mumbai Mail derailed in Jharkhand’s Seraikela-Kharsawan district early Tuesday. The derailment has drawn sharp criticism from opposition leaders. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee condemned the central government, stating, “Another disastrous rail accident! Howrah-Mumbai Mail derailed... is this governance?” Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra also criticized the government’s handling of railway safety. The BJP faces calls for accountability and urgent safety reforms amid rising rail accidents.
