“The recent stampede at Mumbai’s Bandra Terminus station is the latest example of India’s crumbling infrastructure. The Balasore train accident in June last year claimed the lives of 300 people, but instead of compensating the victims, the BJP government has entangled them in a long legal battle,” said Rahul Gandhi in a post on X.

Further commenting on the incident that left nine injured, the LoP said inaugurations and publicity are good only when there is a foundation behind them that actually works to serve the public. “When people lose their lives and bridges, platforms or statues start collapsing after the ribbon is cut, due to lack of maintenance and neglect of public property, it is a matter of serious concern,” said Gandhi in his statement.

“Just think, when even the statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj falls down in just 9 months, it clearly means that the intention was only publicity – there was no respect for Shivaji Maharaj in this, nor was the safety of the public taken into consideration. India is capable and competent – we just need an effective and transparent system aimed at public service and focused on laying the foundation for a strong future for the country,” said Rahul Gandhi.
