Rail Phatak

Dainik Bhaskar, Jaipur: Monday, 14 May 2012: Gate of death made on railway line: The railway administration of Malviya Nagar has left such a pole, which is inviting accidents on the day of arrival. There have been more than 7 deaths occurred in about two years. Local residents allege that when the barricading was being done here by the railway, these gates were left only after the insistence of shopping malls and complex operators. Sandeep Gupta argued that people on the other side of the railway line of Malviya Nagar have to take long trips to come here for shopping. In such a situation, they will be able to come in a shortcut from this gate. Under his pressure, these open gates were made. The movement of people is becoming regular from these gates. When 10 people were examined on the spot in one minute, it came to light that in about a minute 10 people were leaving from here. The number of children and women was also high among them. The situation was that even those who brought bicycle and motor cycle were not afraid to cross the track from here. In the evening there are many PG hostels on the main road of Malviya Nagar, where the students stay. In the evening, such a huge crowd passes through the Gaurav tower that an accident can happen at any time. Incidents of the last few days, about three months ago, a young woman listening to songs on mobile was crossing railway line 2 from here that the train was hit. Similarly, an Afghan young man was hit by a train talking on mobile. These gates were built under pressure from shopping complex and mall operators. We have also complained about this to the railway administration several times. Now, they should close the gates immediately, so that accidents can be prevented. – Sandeep Gupta, CLG Convenor, Malviya Nagar Police Station.
