Reportedly, a passenger, Chaitali Majumdar, a resident of Laketown, Siliguri, had reportedly filed a complaint against the driver and co-driver of the goods train involved in the accident. However, Majumdar has claimed that he never filed such a complaint. According to her statement, when she was hospitalized after getting injured in the incident, she was asked to sign on a blank paper. Later she learned that a complaint had been filed in her name.
Majumdar’s father supported his claims and raised questions as to why he would file a complaint against the driver and co-driver, whom he did not know.
