Govt rapped over Odisha train tragedy

THE Congress and Trinamool Congress attacked the Modi government on Tuesday saying the government has "compromised" on the core issues of railway safety.

The Opposition's attack on the Modi government came after the Commission of Railway Safety (CRS) submitted its report on the triple train accident in Odisha's Balasore district on June 2, which claimed the lives of more than 250 people.

The CSR report cites faulty signalling system and human error as the main reasons behind the tragedy.
