“The metal (boulders) dumped near the railway tracks were creating a loud noise besides causing sparks under the train, following which the train was stopped fearing possible derailment. Passengers panicked fearing that the train had caught fire and jumped from it,” said a local requesting anonymity.As soon as they jumped from the train, they were run over by the Asansol-Jasidih passenger train leading to the deaths of two people on the spot, while many others were injured and have been taken to the hospital, he added.Jamtara MLA Irfan Ansari said he will be leaving for the accident site. “I have given directions to identify those responsible for it. We will also raise the issue in the Assembly. The deceased have not been identified yet,” said the MLA.Railway officials, however, claimed that the two people who died were not passengers but people walking on the track who were run over by another train. A three-member committee has been formed to probe the issue, they said.
