Uttar Pradesh : Azad Samaj Party-Kanshiram MP from Nagina seat of Uttar Pradesh Chandrashekhar Azad on Sunday claimed that stones were thrown at the Vande Bharat train in which he was traveling and urged the Railway Minister and administration to take strict action to prevent such incidents. Azad also called upon parents and school teachers to make children aware of this issue to prevent such incidents.

Vande Bharat train again attacked with stones.

MP Azad posted on the social media platform 'X' and said, 'This morning I was traveling from Delhi to Kanpur by Vande Bharat train. As soon as I crossed Kamalpur station in Bulandshahr district at 7.12 am, some antisocial element threw stones from outside, due to which the glass near the passenger sitting two seats ahead of me got shattered.' He said, 'I was shocked and stunned by this incident. This incident not only caused damage to government property, but also raised questions on the safety of passengers. Such incidents are reprehensible and cannot be accepted at any cost.'

MP Chandrashekhar Azad made this appeal.

Azad said, 'According to a report, the number of such incidents reached 1503 in the year 2022, causing a loss of crores of rupees to the Railways. This figure forces one to think why such incidents are happening again and again. Stone pelting on the train not only damages property, but it can also prove fatal for the passengers.' He said, 'It needs to be understood that the railways is an invaluable asset of the country and its protection is the responsibility of all of us citizens of the country. Such acts in the society not only create a sense of insecurity but also damage the image of our country.'

This demand was made to the Railway Minister and the administration..

The MP said that to prevent such incidents, the Union Railway Minister, Railway Police, and the administration should take strict steps and also spread awareness in the society. He appealed to parents and teachers and said, 'I request that it is important for parents in the family and teachers in schools to make children aware of this subject. This will not only reduce such incidents but will also ensure the safety of passengers.'

Azad said, 'We all should become a conscious citizen. This country is ours, and the protection of the country's property is not only the government's but also the moral responsibility and constitutional fundamental duty of all of us.'

He has also tagged Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav in his post.
