big time drama happened today in WB on the Rajdhani express being taken over/hijacked by naxals/maoists, etc.
all ended well and no one was hurt and so on.
i agree that it is very troublesome and stressful and threatening (as passengers, as train Ops Research people, law enforcement people, etc).
but using the trains as a protest mechanism, these happen in mumbai quite frequently,
1. Feb 8, 2009 in Borivali.
2. Sep 2, 2009 in Nallasopara.
the latest one is planned and the mumbai one's are spontaneous.
but net net, the frustrations of the people result in violent behaviour.
of course, violence cannot be justified from any angle.
but i am just bringing together 'similar' incidents with different 'perspectives'.
p.s. - hey protesters, leave the trains alone
