Social media is quite prompt to lap up something peculiar from issues which are part of daily affairs. Now the fresh trend that is propagating on Twitter is about Vande Bharat Superfast Express as the train on Saturday rammed into cattle in Gujarat.
This is the third incident in a month that involves the newly induced semi-high speed train.
Railway sources said the incident left the train’s front panel damaged and also dented the underbelly equipment of its first coach.
As the news got flashed across news channels, netizens flooded social media with their reactions. India’s finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s old statement about weakening of rupee against dollar got special mention as twitterati seems to be mockingly justifying her statement relating it with train’s accident.
