Agitation in Jharkhand throws train services off track, over 100 trains hit
Agitation by the Kurmi community in Jharkhand disrupted train operations under the East Central Railway zone, stranding thousands of passengers across eastern India. Protesters demanded Scheduled Tribe status and inclusion of the Kurmali language in the Constitution. Over 100 trains were cancelled, diverted, or short-terminated, with services gradually restoring after the agitation ended.
