The Indian-Railways has recorded zero-passenger-deaths in rail accidents in FY 2019-20 so far, making it the national transporter's safest-year in history, according-to-official-data. The railways recorded 16 deaths in 2018-19, 28 the previous fiscal, and 195 in 2016-17. Union Minister Piyush Goyal on Friday credited the railways' fatality-free run between April-1 and December-27 this year to the hard work of its 13 lakh odd personnel.
