The government has gone overboard in creating a “hype” that the Railways has become a smart and speedy mode of transport but all is not well with the system and the Odisha accident is a wake up call, the CPI-M has said.
The Left party also said a “legitimate” question is being raised on why Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has not resigned following the June 2 train crash in Odisha’s Balasore. Several opposition parties have asked for Vaishnaw’s resignation since the accident.
