Another railway accident - Should Ashwini Vaishnav resign??

Why would he resign? Just look at your neighbouring countries, do they have such extensive rail infra? A bullet train-esque train(Tejas). Who do you want? Laalu?

Why does every accusation point towards resigning? It would be the easiest way out Our focus should be finding why it happened, and making sure it doesn't repeat. Last week I saw a video of stones kept on the Vande Bharat track. If such a thing were to happen at that high speed, nothing would be spared. God forbid that happens, how will a minister resigning help? Infact it will only weaken the ministry without a leader at such a crucial time.

How about the people who put boulders, gas cylinder and other stuff on railway track, what about the people who throw stones on trains like Vande Bharat??!! is that his fault !! People don’t want development they need freebies. Free ka paisa dedo, or dusri community ke logo ke liye apna mazhab jyada jaruri hai unko development se koi lena dena nahi

He definitely should. I'm usually not the kind of person to support resignation culture. I believe in understanding problems and improving the system to ensure the same mistake never happens again. However in his case, mistakes are repeating. India in 2023 has ample technology and talent to set a zero accidents policy and effectively enforce that. If it's not being done, it's the leadership who is lacking. If multiple incidents occur within 365 days, leadership is beyond incompetent. They should have used Balasore as a wake-up call and brought in sweeping changes with speed. People will say our rail network is massive and it's hard, but you need to look at the sheer number of employees and funds railways have at their disposal. It's a management and efficiency problem, not a scale one. People should be sacked for failures which cause loss of lives. We're in 2023, not 1960.

Search social media. You can see folks belonging to certain community have started a trend of putting stones on tracks. These are not pebbles, but huge stones one after the other. We need to start actively monitoring our tracks and make this a non bailable offense.
