Close shave

Derailment of Rajdhani Express:
Rajdhani Express has had a close shave. Million of thanks to the driver of the train that he could take right action at right moment sensing something wrong was going on with the engine and thus could save so many precious lives. Railway manger ruled out any sabotage and pointed accusing finger to the ill maintenance of the train. However, Railway minister hasn’t as yet come out with any statement. Very likely as on earlier occasions she might claim the incident was handiwork of the present government and findings of even high-level enquiry committee to the contrary would not be able to change her opinion. She might harp on her view rather than go to the root of the problem so that such life threatening incidents might not occur in future. Now it’s high time Railways could stop playing ducks and drakes with the lives of the passengers.
