Train leaves for Bihar, reaches Allahabad

Lucknow, Oct 5 (UNI) You must have heard people getting strayed, but in a bizzar incident, a Bihar bound train today diverted from its route and reached Allahabad city of Uttar Pradesh.

The special train, en route from Delhi to Darbhanga in Bihar, surprisingly changed its route and headed for Allahabad.

The irresponsible act has, however, left the railway officials 'jittery' and 'speechless'.

The Pooja special train 4006 B had left the Delhi railway station for Bihar late last night and had to traverse through Kanpur, Lucknow and Gonda.

However, when the train started heading towards the other city, the passengers pulled the chain near Sarsol station.

Later, after much commotion, the train returned to Kanpur central station, from where it proceeded for Bihar.

The railway officials were, however, tightlipped on the matter.
