In a significant incident near Kim railway station in Gujarat, a potential disaster was averted when railway staff discovered an attempted sabotage of train tracks. Unidentified individuals tampered with the railway infrastructure by removing critical components, including fishplates and keys, which are essential for maintaining the integrity of the tracks. This act posed a severe risk of derailing trains on the Western Railway's Vadodara division.

The timely intervention of Subhash Kumar, a vigilant railway keyman, was instrumental in preventing a major catastrophe. He noticed the tampering and quickly acted to halt the 12910 Delhi (Hazrat Nizamuddin)-Bandra Terminus Garib Rath train, effectively alerting station staff and ensuring the safety of passengers. His quick thinking not only saved lives but also highlighted the crucial role of railway personnel in maintaining safety standards.

Following the incident, train services on the affected line were temporarily suspended but resumed shortly after the situation was assessed and secured. The quick response underscores the importance of vigilance in ensuring railway safety, especially in light of recent concerns regarding infrastructure security.

Ongoing investigations are being conducted by the Government Railway Police (GRP), the Railway Protection Force (RPF), and local crime branch units to identify the culprits behind this sabotage attempt. Authorities are focused on understanding the motivations behind such dangerous actions and implementing stronger safety measures to protect railway infrastructure.

This incident has raised significant alarm about the security of railway operations in the region, emphasizing the need for enhanced surveillance and protective measures to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
