Around five criminals robbed passengers of Duronto Express at Delhi’s Badli railway station in the wee hours of Thursday.
A passenger has lodged a complaint in this regard on the portal of Indian Railways.
In the complaint, the passenger who was travelling from Jammu to Delhi, said the incident took place at 3.30 a.m. and the train attendant, the Travelling Ticket Examiner (TTE) and the security personnel were not available at the time of the incident.
"Today at 3.30 a.m., the train stopped somewhere due to (a) signal problem. Some five unidentified culprits entered coaches B3 and B7. They put their knife on the neck of other passengers and asked them to provide whatever expensive items they were carrying. They took their purses, cash, carry bags, gold chain and other things. The incident happened within 10 to 15 minutes," the passenger said in his complaint.
"The irony was that neither staff nor security personnel were available at the time of the mishap."
The incident took place at 3.30 am when the miscreants stooped the Delhi-bound train at Badli station.
They robbed the passengers of B3 and B7 coaches at knife-point.
The criminals snatched cash and jewellery from the passengers and ran way.
Chief Public Relations Officer (CPRO), Northern Railways, Deepak Kumar, said they will take stern actions.
"The Railway Protection Force (RPF) has some initial lead in this case... We will be able to catch the culprits soon," he said.
Sabji Mandi GRP is investigating the matter.
