Aurangabad Train Mishap: Nimrat Kaur, Richa Chadha Express Grief As Migrant Workers Crushed To Death On Railway Tracks
This morning, 16 migrant workers walking to reach their homes in Madhya Pradesh were run over by a goods train in Aurangabad. The tragic accident reportedly occurred at around 5:30 am in the morning on the Aurangabad-Jalna railway line. According to PTI, the labourers had been walking along the railway tracks and after being exhausted, they fell asleep. They were crushed to death on the railway tracks by a goods train. Now, Bollywood celebrities Richa Chadha, Nimrat Kaur, Rahul Dev among others are deeply saddened to hear the heartbreaking news.

Nimrat Kaur tweeted, “Prayers for the deceased migrant labourers who’ve lost their lives in the tragic train mishap in Aurangabad. Wishing all these horrendous atrocities away... #Aurangabad,” while Richa Chadha wrote, “To wake up to such news... heart hurts! How can we be so cruel to those because of whom we flourish ? #WeNeedaRevolution.”  Film producer Tanuj Garg tweeted, “Migrant labourers crushed to death on railway tracks. This should shake our national conscience, but will, sadly, be forgotten tomorrow. This happened because there were inadequate arrangements for migrants to go home and because their travel was not free.”

The Ministry of Railways tweeted that an inquiry has been ordered regarding this. The tweet read, “During early hours today after seeing some labourers on track, loco pilot of goods train tried to stop the train but eventually hit them between Badnapur and Karmad stations in Parbhani-Manmad section. Injured have been taken to Aurangabad Civil Hospital. An inquiry has been ordered."
