The loss of property caused to Indian Railways in Friday’s arson and rioting by Army aspirants, as a fallout of the Agnipath scheme, is to the tune of ₹12 crore, said Divisional Railway Manager-Secunderabad, Abhay Kumar Gupta on Saturday.
“This is apart from compensations — to be quantified and paid to food stall vendors, refunds for ticket bookings and losses due to delay in transporting goods,” he said, adding that most amenities at the station for passengers were restored.
Trains were operated from the junction from 6.30p.m. on Friday, soon after the police removed the young protesters from the station premises and took some of them into custody.
