Stone pelted at train with RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat; coach glass broken
A stone hurled at a train traveling through Maharashtra struck the coach carrying RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, shattering a window. No injuries were reported, but the incident has sparked concern over passenger safety.
While a passenger train chugged through a remote stretch of Maharashtra on Thursday, a sudden clatter startled everyone on board. A stone, apparently thrown from the platform or nearby foliage, smashed into the side of the carriage that had RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat seated inside.
The impact was enough to crack the coach’s window glass, sending shards scattering across the aisle. Witnesses say Bhagwat was unhurt and remained calm, though the unexpected blast rattled the other passengers.
Railway officials quickly sealed off the affected coach and arranged for an alternate carriage to continue the journey. The train resumed its schedule after a brief halt, and the shattered glass was cleared by the crew.
Local police have opened an inquiry into the incident, seeking to identify the perpetrator. While motives remain unclear, authorities are treating the matter seriously, noting that any act of vandalism against a moving train endangers not only the passengers but also the broader rail network.
RSS spokesperson expressed disappointment over the episode, urging the public to respect the sanctity of public transport and refrain from any violence. "We appeal to the citizens to maintain peace and let our trains run safely," the statement read.
The incident has reignited discussions about railway security, especially in remote stretches where surveillance is limited. Railway officials have promised to review safety protocols and consider additional measures such as CCTV installations and increased patrols.
