This follows similar incidents in Agra and Lucknow, with one incident in Agra even leading to physical altercation and forced removal of drivers from the train. The Vande Bharat Express, launched by PM Modi virtually from Gujarat, was scheduled to start its journey from Varanasi to Agra on Monday.

They also raised concerns about unfamiliar routes and safety protocols being employed by NCR drivers.

Isse pehle Agra aur Lucknow mein bhi aisa hi ho chuka hai. Agra mein to chalako aur guard ke beech maar-peet bhi ho gayi thi. Kapde faad diye gaye the. Chalako ko jabarjan force se train se bahar kar diya gaya tha.
Vande Bharat train ko Agra se Varanasi ke liye PM Modi ne Gujarat se virtual dhandhi dikhakar start kiya tha. Schedule decide nahi hone ki wajah se abhi tak ye train start nahi ho payi thi. Shukravaar ko schedule aaya aur somvaar se isko chalane ki tarikh ailan ki gayi. Iske baad dopahar 2:30 pe Varanasi station ke platform 8 pe Agra ke liye Vande Bharat train pahunchi. Issi waqt NER ke driver bhi pahuche aur train ko NCR ke driver se chalane ka virodh kiya.
Apne haathon mein takhtiyan aur chest pe kagaz se likhi maang leke pahunche NER ke chalako ne Vande Bharat Express ke aage track pe baith kar dharna dena start kiya. Kuchh der waha dharna dene ke baad platform 8 pe aa gaye aur waha dharna start kar diya. Train ko NCR ke driver aur guard se chalane ka virodh kiya.
Chalako ka kahna tha ki railway ke rules ke hisab se NER ka area Prayagraj tak hai. Waha tak Vande Bharat Express ko hum logo ko chalana chahiye. Is VIP train ko NER ke area mein bhi NCR ke chalako se chalaya ja raha hai. Kaha ki NER ka route aur safety protocols hum logo ko pata hai lekin hum logo ke haathon se jabarjan is train ko leke NCR ke chalako ke havale kiya ja raha hai.
