The disaster
The demon the Ravana that is burnt each year in the memory of the bravery of the great king Rama a Hindu God. Just like each year this year also the festival of Dussehra was celebrated but not happily everywhere, the shouting and pain of the people whose dear ones died in the disaster occurred due to a train running over people during the celebration of Dussehra in Amritsar Punjab was a proof that sometimes a small mistake can lead to the death of many. what was the mistake of those people who came there just to see the demon burning , to celebrate the event of dusshera ? There mistake was that they could not look that the place where they were standing was a train track and even not see the train coming . The mistake was done by the train driver that he didn't stop the train that didn't saw the people on the track . rip to the souls who are not more with us . may god give there families the strength to bear the pain .
