The cylinder was placed a mere 30m from the signal. Kanpur Police, RPF and GRP are investigating,” said Om Narayan Singh, SHO of Kanpur Central GRP. “Though the probability of derailment was minuscule as the train’s momentum would have likely propelled the cylinder away, the deliberate placement of the gas cylinder on the track indicates sabotage,” Kanpur police said

In the incident near Kanpur, the 5-litre cylinder was removed from the tracks by police after a thorough examination. “Around 5.50am, locopilots Dev Anand Gupta and C B Singh of the Jorhat-bound freight train spotted an empty cylinder on the tracks ahead of the signal. The crew promptly applied emergency brakes to avert a potential catastrophe,” read a statement issued by North Central Railway (NCR). Two empty beer cans and a snack wrapper were also found on the scene.

Ten railway detonators were placed over a 10m distance on the Mumbai rail route between Sagphata and Dongargaon railway stations,” Dr Swapnil Nila, chief public relations officer of Central Railway,

Sources said a gangman has been detained but there is no official confirmation. He is alleged to have done this in a drunken rage. The train, headed for Thiruvananthapuram, was carrying Army personnel and weapons, police sources said. A couple of the detonators — more like firecrackers — exploded when the train passed over them. The loco pilot pulled the brakes the moment he heard the first explosion. The train was halted for half an hour at Sagphata station, while the area was inspected.

Since Aug this year, at least six alleged attempts have been made in UP to sabotage railway operations. In MP's Burhanpur district, the 10 'railway detonators' were found placed at intervals of a metre each. The railways called it an "attempt at mischief". The Army has requested custody of certain key railway personnel, including signalmen and trackmen, for questioning as part of the probe.

In what seems to be yet more attempts to sabotage railway operations, it has come to light that railway 'detonators' were placed on tracks in Madhya Pradesh's Ratlam on September 18 when an Army special train was passing through. The revelation came on a day when an empty gas cylinder was found on the tracks at Prempur station near Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur.

Jay shree ram Modiji. I am currently working for MNC company in gujarat. Right now it is very viral about one sister and their family have to face extreme circumstances due to work pressure. You already regulate the work environment and culture for govt employees. This is the high time we need to address this as many future generations are going to work for some foreign companies. Work culture here is as we are slave for those 8-9 hours and they can do whatever they want. I have many friends and they usually say the same. I am fortunate that my company have a good working culture. But i am in worry for my other brothers and sisters. Please your view sir!

I propose a theme for "Mann Ki Baat": Promoting Digital Literacy for All. This topic can focus on the importance of digital skills in today’s world, especially for rural and underserved communities. By sharing stories of initiatives that teach digital literacy—such as workshops, mobile learning units, and community centers—we can empower individuals to access information, online services, and economic opportunities. Highlighting successful programs and inspiring change-makers can motivate others to join this vital effort. Enhancing digital literacy will not only bridge the digital divide but also foster inclusion and innovation across the country.

Dear Modi Ji Sub : Use information technology in Indian railways I personally request you to kindly encourage information technology in Indian railways especially AI technology and black chain technology
