Train derails in Tangail, rail communication with North Bengal halted

A compartment of the Nilsagar Express train derailed in Mirzapur, Tangail. As a result, direct rail communication between Dhaka and North and South Bengal has been disrupted.

The accident took place around 9:15 am on Thursday near the Mohera railway station area of the upazila. While the Dhaka-to-Chilahati-bound train was crossing the Mohera station area, the wheels of a rear compartment slipped off the track.

This damaged the block point of the railway line, causing train movement to be suspended. Mohera Railway Station Master Sohel Rana said that passengers are suffering as trains are stuck at various stations due to this situation.
