Suresh Prabhu Takes The Blame For The Train Accidents And Agrees To Resign, Check What PM Modi Replied To Him

It is very obvious that these days Indian Railways has been facing tantrums from the public due to the subsequent delays, bad quality food and on the top of everything- Train accidents.

It is those two major accidents that stained the service and image of the ministry: In Utkal Express derailment, nearly 22 passengers lost their lives while almost 150 were injured and in yesterday’s Kafiyat Express derailment incident, more than 70 was injured.

Now, that these unfortunate incidents took place, Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu will be the most blamed person in any aspect. Now after all this, he is certainly under intensive stress, out of this criticism, he voluntarily decided to resign for the job.

He even approached Modi for the declaration, however, the Prime Minister didn’t agree for the same, he instead urged him to wait. Prabhu, in his series of tweets, addressed the issue saying that the loss of human life has caused him deep pain and anguish.

Added that in his three years tenure, he dedicated his blood, sweat, and tears for enhancing Indian Railways and as per him, India deserves to get a railway system which is modernized.
