“Rail Mantri Has Become Reel Mantri”: Aaditya Thackeray Blames Railway Minister After Mumbra Train Tragedy

Mumbai: Following the tragic mishap near Mumbra where several passengers reportedly fell from an overcrowded suburban train, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray launched a blistering attack on Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, holding him directly responsible for repeated railway accidents under his watch.

Speaking to reporters, Aaditya Thackeray said, “Rail mantri has become a reel mantri. There have been multiple terrible train accidents in the last 2-3 years but no one is coming forward to claim any responsibility. This is solely the responsibility of the railway department and the railway minister. People of India have demanded his resignation multiple times but he carries on.”

The incident occurred on a local train heading from Mumbra to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) on Monday morning. According to reports, at least three people are feared dead and several others injured after falling from the moving train. Victims have been admitted to nearby hospitals, and investigations are underway.

Thackeray also criticised the central government’s focus on optics over action. “This government is busy building narratives instead of addressing core issues like safety and infrastructure in the railway sector,” he remarked.
