Wrong to blame Railways for Amritsar accident: Rail board chief
After a train ran over more than 60 people watching Dussehra celebrations in Punjab's Amritsar, Railway Board Chairman Ashwani Lohani said, "It would be wrong to say Railways is responsible for this accident." "There were two (closed) manned-level crossings on that track...Railway administration wasn't informed about the Dussehra celebration...People were watching...from railway tracks," he added.
