Daily Hazards at Sambalpur Gate Railway Station
Sambalpur: Gangadhar Meher University students face daily dangers at the Sambalpur Fatak Railway station. They climb over stranded goods trains on the railway line, a dangerous practice necessitated by frequent train stops. This routine endangers their lives, especially if a girl climbs and the train moves unexpectedly, posing a serious risk of injury or death.
The Urgency of the Situation
Good trains become stranded every hour, causing exams and classes delays. As a result, students must take this risky path. The railway department previously built a foot overbridge at this station but was dismantled for renovations. Unfortunately, they have made no other plans during this time.
