Explosion on Punjab Railway Track Damages Freight Train, Prompts Security Probe Ahead of Republic Day
An explosion occurred on a railway track in Sirhind, Fatehgarh Sahib, Punjab, late Friday night, just 48 hours before Republic Day. The blast, which took place as a freight train was passing on the Amritsar-Delhi route, damaged a section of the track and the train's engine, causing minor injuries to the driver. Railway officials and security agencies are now on high alert, with an inter-agency, scientific investigation launched into the incident. The event is being treated with serious concern due to its timing during a state-wide red alert and in light of recent busts of terror modules and arms caches in Punjab.
