Central Railway Minister’s tireless efforts:
HD Devegowda’s stance reflects his belief that Ashwini Vaishnaw has been diligently working to address the aftermath of the Balasore Train Tragedy. The former prime minister acknowledges the steps taken by the railway minister to restore the damage caused by the unfortunate incident. Vaishnaw’s tireless efforts in coordinating rescue operations, providing relief to the affected, and initiating necessary measures to prevent such incidents in the future have not gone unnoticed.
Devegowda highlights the significance of allowing the inquiry into the Balasore Train Tragedy to reach its conclusion before passing judgment. In complex situations like these, it is essential to gather all the facts and analyze the sequence of events thoroughly.
