READING COMPREHENSION -1
Read the following passage and answer the questions given below:
Lucknow, May 26: At least 22 passengers were killed when a speeding express
crashed into a waiting goods train from behind near Gorakhpur today, with
preliminary accounts suggesting signalling error as the cause. The Hisar-Gorakhpur
Express was running at 80 kmph when it rammed into the goods train barely
45km from its destination, causing the engine and six coaches next to it to derail.
The two drivers of the superfast train were among the dead in the accident that
occurred around 10.35am when the train was passing Chaurib station in Uttar
Pradesh. The station master of Chaurib, responsible for the signalling lapse, is
absconding as is the driver of the stationary goods train.
"My condolences to families of those who lost their lives in the Gorakhdham
Express tragedy. Prayers with the injured," the Prime Minister tweeted. At the
accident site, officials said the casualties could go up as many of the 100 injured
passengers are in critical condition. Most of those who died were in the three
unreserved coachcc-including one reduced to a mass of mangled metal, the
official said.
Bharat Lal, the Sant Kabirnagar District Magistrate who was at the spot and
oversaw rescue operations, said at least 20 passengers had died. Most of the
injured have been admitted to hospitals in Gorakhpur and Basti, over 30 km away.
Some of the passengers alleged delay in rescue and relief. Railway Board Chairman
Arunendra Kumar denied the allegations. The Railways announced a compensation
of Rs 1 lakh for the families of the dead.
