Speaking on the matter, Vaishnaw said, "Action was taken on this yesterday itself. The train's rake was changed, and four officers responsible have been suspended."
The incident occurred on Monday, when BSF personnel were scheduled to travel from Udaipur to Jammu. However, they refused to board the train after finding it in an unimaginably poor state. A replacement train with improved conditions was later arranged.
