At least 70 people have been killed after gas cooking stoves exploded and set fire to a crowded train in Pakistan.

More than 30 people were wounded, some critically, in the blaze which started when two gas stoves being used by poorer passengers to cook breakfast on Thursday morning blew up.

As smoke and flames tore through the train, desperate passengers threw themselves out of the moving carriages - many of them jumping to their deaths.

Children were among those killed in the blaze, according to local reports.

Capitalism has done too much harm than good to the society. Imagine travelling on a long journey without money for food even though food is sold on board. The poor are always been subjected to inhuman situations where they make wrong and risky decisions like cooking inside a train I even suspect will be over-crowded because of inability to buy food that is sold onboard. May their souls rest in peace.

I am Saying Accepting JESUS CHRIST is the best Gift you can give your Soul.

To live is Christ...
To Die is Gain...

This is quite unfortunate. By the way, who gave the go-ahead for there to be cooking on-board a train? Is that a norm or some people begged to be allowed to cook and the driver okayed it?

People in authority need to learn the art of saying no and sticking to it, no matter the begging and pleas. Just thinking wild. So bad.

poverty can cause anything. "Hot plates or electric cookers are on the ban list of almost all Nigerian universities but over 90% of students use them. Not because they want to, but because there are no other cheaper alternatives. Either use them, or you stay hungry. Poverty can make people ignore rules and regulations and even safety laws sometimes. There was food being sold on board but they couldn't afford it. I remember those days when travelling to Lagos and we get to Ore in Ondo state. When people are buying good food, I will only buy banana and groundnut. grin grin grin because that was what I could afford by then. We shouldn't blame them, blame this excessive capitalism that makes not even the slightest provisions for the less privileged.

shocked Who confirmed it as a mere cooking gas?
Cos there was a time a place was raised in Spain, they found lots of cooking gas cylinders, but those were used or intended to be used to locally manufacture bombs.

RIP to the deceased.

How did this happen, was the gas pipe line not confined to the kitchen section of the train only?

This is probably a disaster caused by poor safety design and planning.
