Nightmarish Experience!

The way a host of girl students of Jogmaya devi college, kolkata, on their way back home from educational tour in Gurudev Express, were outrageously treated initially by drunken passengers and then by RPF men, has laid bare how unsafe is railway travel, particularly for women.Perhaps,this nightmarish incident would haunt the victims through out their lives. Their guardians too would never forget anxieties and agonies they helplessly suffered when they came to learn the awful plight of their daughters in moving train. Now guardians would perhaps think twice before sending their daughters on educational tour, though it’s part of the curriculam.However, public is yet to know what action railway authorities have taken against those offending security personnel and the passengers who misbehaved with the students or they are engaged in blame game-one department passing buck to another! Nor has the railway minister who’s supposed to have zero tolerance in such incidents yet reacted with vehemence as expected.
