अमृतसर ट्रेन हादसा LIVE: सुखबीर बादल बोले- ये नरसंहार है, स्वतंत्र एजेंसी करे जांच
अमृतसर। पंजाब के अमृतसर में एक बड़ा रेल हादसा होने से अब तक 61 की मौत और 70 से ज्यादा घायल बताए जा रहे हैं। इस हादसे के समय सैंकड़ों लोग रेलवे ट्रैक पर खड़े हो होकर रावण दहन देख रहे थे। तभी अचानक से ट्रेन आ गई, जिससे ट्रैक पर खड़े लोग ट्रेन के चपेट में आ गए। अभी भी करीब 40 लोगों की स्थिति बेहद गंभीर बताई जा रही है। इस घटना के पीछे प्रशासन और रेलवे की लापरवाही मानी जा रही है, लेकिन रेलवे का कहना है कि उन्हें कार्यक्रम की जानकारी नहीं थी। रावण दहन का आयोजन ट्रैक से कुछ ही मीटर दूरी पर हो रहा था। ये हादसा नवजोत सिंह सिद्धू के विधानसभा क्षेत्र में हुआ, बताया जा रहा है कि इस कार्यक्रम में नवजोत सिंह सिद्धू की पत्नी भी शिरकत करने पहुंची थी।
