In regard to Neeraj's post I have uploaded this picture which I took a few days ago. It has been taken at the railway track were the three children died under a running train like this on 15th of August what I didn't know when I went there two days ago. Now knowing what happened here just a few days earlier it is even more dramatic as it seems that nothing has been changed. Children are again playing on the railway tracks with their whole families living very close by. How many more have to die before something changes? I seriously doubt anything will change.
