Indian Trains

WTF is wrong with that country?

Why do their trains crash every other month and kill hundreds of people?

I mean come on... It's not that hard to control a fucking train on a track.

Did you even read the article?

The tracks were allegedly "sabotaged" and a group is said to be claiming responsibility.

Quote:
"It appears to be a case of sabotage where a portion of the railway track was removed. Whether explosives were used is not yet clear," Home Minister P. Chidambaram said in a statement.

When I saw the thread title I thought it would be about Indians running trains on their women.

I did, I've read many articles in the past few years about "sabotaged" tracks in India or some other "it's not our fault excuse". IMHO, it's just another excuse in their completely defunct railway/transportation system.

The fact that they load 10,000 people on trains probably has to do with why so many trains crash there as well.

The one that crashed seems to be with a normal passenger load and is accepted to have been sabotaged, the entire government wouldn't risk humiliation if the truth is out.

They are not very wealthy considering they have nearly 3.5x the population to take care of on 1/13 of the US GDP. It will take them years at 8% to bring about meaningful socioeconomic development.
