Prayagraj – A stone-pelting incident occurred on the Mahabodhi Express, traveling from New Delhi to Gaya (Bihar), on Monday night near Prayagraj, leaving several passengers injured. The train was halted at Mirzapur station, where the injured were treated. The Railway Protection Force (RPF) has detained three suspects in connection with the incident.
The attack happened around 9:16 PM, shortly after the train departed from Prayagraj Junction at 9:06 PM. The Mahabodhi Express had reached Prayagraj at 8:33 PM. The stones, approximately 50 to 60 in number, were thrown at the train, with some smashing through the windows of the S-3 coach and hitting passengers inside.
The locomotive pilot stopped the train as soon as he was informed of the pelting. RPF teams arrived at the scene, but by then, the train had already resumed its journey.
