Railways Fire in Sabarmati Express at Godhra `accidental' Our Bureau
New Delhi , Jan. 17 THE high-level inquiry into the blaze in a train in Godhra, in which 59 persons were burnt to death that led to subsequent violence in Gujarat in 2002, has found that it was an "accidental fire." "With the elimination of the `petrol theory,' `miscreant activity theory' as well as the ruling out of any possibility of `electrical fire,' the fire in S-6 coach of the Sabarmati Express can at this stage be ascribed as an `accidental fire'," Justice U.C. Banerjee Committee, appointed by the Railway Minister, Mr Lalu Prasad, said in its report. The interim report was submitted to the Railway Board Chairman, Mr R.K. Singh, here on Monday. The committee was constituted on September 4, 2004.
