दिल्ली-हावड़ा ट्रैक पर आग: 55 मिनट तक रुकी रहीं ट्रेनें, नाली के पानी और लाठी-डंडों से पाया काबू, जांच शुरू

A massive fire erupted near Dadanagar in Kanpur on Monday afternoon, engulfing all four railway tracks and disrupting the Delhi-Howrah route for approximately 55 minutes. The blaze, which started in large bushes along the railway tracks, led to the halting of over half a dozen passenger trains and goods trains near...

the Central Station's outer area and the Juhi yard. Although the fire subsided temporarily, allowing one train to pass, it reignited due to strong winds, causing panic among passengers as the train passed near the flames. Firefighters, RPF, and personnel from the Ordnance Factory worked for about an hour to extinguish the fire. RPF and railway authorities have initiated an investigation into the cause of the fire.

Kanpur ke Dadanagar mein, Monday dopahar ko, railway track ke kinare badi-badi jhadiyon mein bahut bada aag lag gaya. Saare 4 tracks aag mein dhal gaye aur Delhi-Howrah route band ho gaya.

ke bahar aur Juhi yard ke pass rok diya gaya. Thodi der ke liye aag kam ho gaya, toh ek train vapas chal payi, lekin hawa chalne se aag phir se bhadak gaya. Train aag ke pass se jaati hui, toh passengers mein dar mach gaya. Fire brigade, RPF aur Ordnance Factory ke logon ne almost 1 hour mein aag par kaboo paya. RPF aur railway authorities ne aag lagne ki jaanch shuru kar di hai.
