It is not at all safe for passengers to travel with snakes. Railways should pay attention to this immediately and ensure the safety of passengers. If something like this is happening, then passengers must register their complaint so that this problem can be resolved.यह सुनकर बहुत अजीब लग रहा है! यात्रियों को सांप के साथ यात्रा करना बिल्कुल भी सुरक्षित नहीं है। रेलवे को इस पर तुरंत ध्यान देना चाहिए और यात्रियों की सुरक्षा सुनिश्चित करनी चाहिए। अगर ऐसा कुछ हो रहा है, तो यात्रियों को अपनी शिकायत जरूर दर्ज करनी चाहिए ताकि इस समस्या का समाधान…— JITENDRA YADAV (@jitendra4yadav4) September 22, 2024A fourth user of X platform named wrote in Hindi, this has been awesome well, wild animals or snakes can come and go anywhere, the government cannot do anything about it. यह तो गजब हो गयाखैर जंगली जानवर या सांप कहीं भी आ जा सकते हैं इसमें सरकार कुछ भी नहीं कर सकती— Hasti Mal Meena (@MeenaHasti) September 22, 2024Squirrel incident in the UKIn a separate incident, a train travelling from Reading to Gatwick Airport in the UK was canceled due to an unexpected issue - two squirrels on board. The squirrels, seemingly frightened and erratic, entered the rear carriage, prompting passengers to move to a different area. Train staff locked the carriage to contain the situation. At Redhill station, a Network Rail employee attempted to coax the squirrels off, but one refused to leave. Despite efforts from Great Western Railway staff, the stubborn squirrel wouldnt budge.The train service was terminated. The squirrel that refused to leave was returned to Reading. A Great Western Railway spokesperson joked, Two squirrels boarded without tickets, breaking railway rules. We tried to remove them, but one insisted on staying. This nutty tale ended with its return to Reading. Passengers were inconvenienced, but the unusual incident brought amusement. The train operator handled the situation efficiently, prioritizing passenger safety.
