Which is supposed to be about Rs 700 crore. 60 bogies and 11 engines of the Railways have been burnt. More than 350 trains had to be canceled because of this agitation. The Stations were vandalised. And the train Vikramsheela Express was looted.
Editorial viewpoint
We cannot imagine what must be the total loss of public property during these displays of violence if just the railways have suffered this much loss. Those responsible for this should be caught and their property confiscated to compensate for this loss, then only will there be fear of the law in the people. |
