Shivamogga: Coaches of Talaguppa–Mysuru passenger train detach on bridge
Shivamogga: Several coaches of the Talaguppa–Mysuru passenger train became detached while crossing a bridge, near Hole bus stop here on Wednesday.
According to initial reports, the coupling between some coaches loosened, causing a few to halt atop the bridge, while the rest of the train came to a stop near the Malleshwara railway crossing. The sudden detachment caused panic among passengers and local residents.
Fortunately, as the train was moving at a slow speed, no injuries or casualties were reported. The loco pilot promptly noticed the separation and brought the train to an immediate halt. Railway personnel quickly arrived at the scene and began work to re-couple the coaches.
The incident drew a crowd of curious onlookers, prompting police to intervene and disperse them for safety reasons.
After an hour-long operation, the railway staff successfully reconnected the detached coaches. The train then resumed its journey towards Mysuru.

Congress misleading public on National Herald case, matter still in court: BJP
New Delhi (PTI): The BJP on Wednesday accused the Congress of running misleading propaganda over the trial court's decision in the National Herald case and said the court refused to take cognisance of the complaint but did not set aside the case.
The case is still pending trial in the Delhi High Court, and the trial court in its order on Tuesday said that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) can continue its investigation, BJP national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia asserted.
"The court yesterday (Tuesday) said that since it is a private complaint and no FIR has been lodged, it will not take cognizance of it. It's a technical matter. The court also said that ED can continue its investigation further. The court did not set it aside," Bhatia told a press conference at the BJP headquarters here
"Its trial is still going on. Sonia Gandhi is still Accused Number-1 and Rahul Gandhi Accused Number-2," the BJP spokesperson said, alleging, "The Gandhi family thrives on deceit, deception, and propaganda."
