The post “Vande Bharat Ko Rukwa Kar Rahengay”: Video Alleging Attempt to Stop Vande Bharat Train Goes Viral appeared first on The Edge Media.
]]>According to reports, a group of individuals placed wooden blocks on the railway track in an apparent attempt to obstruct the movement of the Vande Bharat train. The video of the incident was widely shared online, drawing sharp criticism from social media users.
In the initial part of the viral clip, some people can be heard jokingly claiming that they had stopped the Vande Bharat train. After the train halts, the same individuals are seen recording a reel. The video also shows a railway police constable onboard the train, which initially gave the impression that the group was attempting to board it.

Later in the footage, the individuals can be heard saying that they had no intention of boarding the train and were only trying to record a viral video. However, the exact location and timing of the incident have not yet been officially confirmed.
Social media users strongly condemned the act, calling it extremely dangerous and irresponsible. Many described it as a threat to passengers’ lives and demanded strict legal action against those involved.
Several users urged the Railway Ministry and the Railway Protection Force (RPF) to arrest the accused and invoke stringent laws, including provisions under the National Security Act (NSA). Some also demanded action under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), stating that endangering a high-speed train could amount to a serious security offence.
Others expressed concern that despite clear evidence, such incidents often go unpunished, allowing offenders to repeat similar acts. Many users tagged Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, the RPF, and the Ministry of Railways, calling for swift and exemplary punishment.
The incident has once again raised serious questions about railway safety and the misuse of social media for dangerous stunts.

Efforts to Save the Injured
Police reported that rescue operations are still ongoing to free passengers stuck under the wreckage. Many of the injured have been rushed to nearby hospitals for treatment, though the exact number of casualties and injuries has not yet been confirmed.
Authorities Respond to the Incident
