Hyderabad: Expressing shock over the train-bus accident at an unmanned level crossing in Medak district, Loksatta Party national president Jayaprakash Narayan said such tragedies should be averted at any cost.

JP said the Medak level crossing accident should serve as a wakeup call and prod the Union and State governments to eliminate all unmanned level crossings as early as possible.

The tragedy also highlights the appalling educational infrastructure in the country, said JP. “The poor and middle class families compelled to send their children to private schools located up to 15 km away from their homes at considerable expense is a sad commentary on the prevailing system. Can’t the government liberate our kids from risky and long commutes in their quest for the basic right to education,” asked JP.
