The incident occurred around 8.45 am between Danwar and Somna in Aligarh, in the North Central Railways’ Prayagraj division.

“Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has announced a compensation of Rs 5 lakh to the family members of passenger Hrishekesh Dubey who lost his life in Neelachal Express accident on December 2,” the North Central Railway said in a tweet in Hindi.
