 Why in news

  • The Lucknow-Mumbai Pushpak Express accident in Maharashtra killed 12 and injured at least 10 people. 

  • The incident was triggered by panic and confusion among passengers.

  • Eyewitnesses suggest rumors of a fire led to passengers pulling the alarm chain, causing the train to stop. 

  • This prompted passengers to deboard the train near Pachora station, where they were hit by an oncoming train, the Karnataka Express.

Safety Concerns

  • The incident may have been caused by a “hot axle” or “brake binding,” which causes sparks and smoke, misleading passengers into thinking there was a fire. 

  • Brake binding is a result of poor maintenance.

  • The railway system’s safety measures, such as the auto doors used in higher-end trains like Vande Bharat and Rajdhani, could be implemented in regular trains to prevent passengers from exiting during unsafe situations.
