A large number of people were watching a huge Ravan effigy in flames while standing on the tracks at a railway crossing at Jora Phatak when the train on way from Pathankot to Amritsar mowed them down, triggering anger and outrage.It was not clear why the train did not halt despite the presence of so many people on the tracks and why the railway crossing was left open for people to gather.
जोरा फाटक में एक रेलवे क्रॉसिंग पर पटरियों पर खड़े होने पर बड़ी संख्या में लोग आग लगने में बड़ी रावण प्रतिमा देख रहे थे, जब पठानकोट से अमृतसर तक की ट्रेन ने उन्हें क्रोधित कर दिया और क्रोध और अपमान की शुरुआत की। यह स्पष्ट नहीं था कि ट्रेन क्यों पटरियों पर इतने सारे लोगों की उपस्थिति के बावजूद रुका नहीं था और लोगों को इकट्ठा करने के लिए रेलवे क्रॉसिंग क्यों खुल गई थी।
