    “There are no words to express my deep condolences to the bereaved family members,” Stalin said. Recalling Rail Minister Suresh Prabhu’s speech after presenting the budget for 2016-17 that the government’s vision was to create an accident-free Indian Railways, Stalin urged the minister to implement the recommendations of the High-level Safety Review Committee, headed by the former Atomic Energy Commission, Chairman Anil Kakodkar. The High-level Safety Review Committee had recommended several measures to prevent train mishaps. PMK Leader Anbumani Ramadoss expressed deep condolences to the families of the deceased and requested the Rail Ministry and the Uttar Pradesh Government to provide compensation to  families of those killed and injured.
