Angry commuters protesting on tracks
The lack of clear communication and timely assistance from Central Railway resulted in a rail roko protest by passengers at Diva station on Sunday, causing disruptions to mainline traffic for nearly an hour. Commuters complained about the complete mismanagement, insufficient information and lack of help from the Railways, further complicating the situation following the earlier derailment incident.
A derailment occurred on Saturday afternoon, causing subsequent train disruptions and extended delays for passenger trains without access to food and water. This sparked protests from commuters at Diva station on Sunday morning. Officials were unable to provide a clear timeline for the normalisation of services as trains continued to line up on both the Konkan Railway and Central Railway lines.
