Bhadohi (UP), Nov 18 (PTI) The Kashi–Dadar Express was halted at Bhadohi railway station after authorities received information about a bomb or some suspected object on board on Tuesday, officials said.

A senior police officer said the train, travelling from Gorakhpur to Lokmanya Tilak Terminus, was stopped at 1:38 pm and subjected to an intensive search operation that continued until 4:45 pm.

No suspicious item was found, and the train was later allowed to proceed.

The sudden halt, heavy deployment of police personnel, and the presence of sniffer dogs and a bomb disposal squad caused anxiety among passengers.

Varanasi GRP Circle Officer Kunwar Prabhat Singh said a man identified as Jai had informed the Prayagraj railway control room about a bomb or suspicious object on the train.
