Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw recently revealed the cause behind the three-way train crash in Odisha involving the Bengaluru-Howrah Superfast Express, the Coromandel Express and a goods train on three separate tracks at Bahanaga Bazar Station in the Balasore district.
Vaishnaw revealed that it was a ‘change in the electronic interlocking system’ that led to the crash killing at least 290 persons and injuring hundreds. The CBI has already been handed over with the responsibility to find out who or what could have caused this change.
