Mumbai-Ahmedabad ‘Vande Bharat Categorical’ hits cow once more on monitor, third such incident in a month

The Mumbai-Gandhinagar Vande Bharat Superfast Categorical practice collided with cattle close to Atul station in Gujarat on Saturday (October 29), delaying the practice by 15-20 minutes, in line with a railway official.

Based on railway sources, the incident broken the practice’s entrance panel and dented the underbelly tools of its first coach.

An official was quoted by the information company PTI as saying, “The Mumbai-Gandhinagar Vande Bharat Categorical practice rammed into cattle close to Atul station in Gujarat.”

That is the third such incident this month involving this semi-high-speed practice.

“The practice didn’t endure any operational harm. It resumed additional journey in 20 minutes,” Sumit Thakur, Western Railway’s chief public relations officer, added that every one passengers on board the practice had been secure.

On October 6, 4 buffaloes had been killed after being struck by this practice on its technique to Gandhinagar from Mumbai, between the railway stations of Vatva and Maninagar in Gujarat.

Because of the harm, its nostril panel had to get replaced in a single day.

The subsequent day (October 7), the practice collided with a cow close to Anand in Gujarat on its technique to Mumbai.

The third service within the Vande Bharat collection, the indigenously designed and manufactured semi-high-speed practice, was flagged off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on September 30 from Gandhinagar Capital, and it started industrial service the next day.
