Around 270 prominent civil society members, including retired judges, bureaucrats, former ambassadors, a former RAW chief, a former NIA director and veterans, wrote to PM Narendra Modi, calling Odisha train tragedy — "deliberate" human interference and an "act of sabotage at the behest of terrorist outfits."
"Our view is that our entire Railway network is vulnerable and is particularly so in Eastern and North-eastern States, including the so-called 'Chicken's Neck'. It is imperative that illegal squatters, along railway tracks, including illegal immigrants be removed and stringent measures be taken to secure the safety of our railway tracks”, the letter stated.
The signatories include 14 former judges, 115 retired bureaucrats (11 ambassadors), and 141 veterans.
