Train hits auto

Train hits auto killing thirteen on the spot. In a most sad occurrences , 12 farm labourers and the auto driver smashed into death after being crushed through by intercity Rourkela to Bhubaneswar at Khairpali , at the not guarded level crossing , six kilometres from Smabalpur town. !2 dies immediately after accident and one succumb to injury at the hospital. They have been taken to Burla , all those killed are from the same village. The auto rickshaw was carrying the laborers from one village and it suddenly cross the level crossing which is unmanned and the superfast intercity is running just from outside of a prominent city of Odisha Smabalpur and while the ladies shouted not to cross now but the auto driver not hearing their voices just gone for crossing and this time his perceptions of time is solely incorrect. What is more worse to this incident is that the train is coming at a very high speed and it dragged the auto rickshaw for 800 more meters on the track leaving almost all dead at the spot. It is a possibility that the driver could not see the auto is dragging due to the small height of auto and for this sole reason it has been dragged for more than eight hundred meters. After the incident the locals block the track for some hours and demand compensates for the victims but in reality it is the fault for the auto driver and he should not have crossed the track at all. The accident delayed the movement of some trains and then after few hours the railway authorities assured the victims relatives that there will be some sort of mechanisms to give them the compensation and then the agitations disperse from the scenes.
