Around three weeks after the triple train crash in Odisha's Balasore district, five top officials of the South Eastern Railway (SER) have been transferred. While the Railways insisted the transfers were "routine," the officials transferred were those who were responsible for operations, safety, and signaling. Notably, 292 people lost their lives in the accident—the deadliest in three decades—while 1,100 were injured.
