Smoke seen in Dibrugarh-Kanyakumari Vivek Express coach in Odisha

Brahmapur (Odisha) [India], July 11 (ANI): Smoke was witnessed in one of the coaches of Dibrugarh-Kanyakumari Vivek Express near Odisha's Brahmapur Station on Tuesday.
The incident took place due to "brake binding" as a sack got stuck in the wheel of a coach, a railway officer said adding that the sack was removed and the fire was put out using a fire extinguisher.
"The smoke was not due to any mishap but brake binding as a sack had got stuck in a wheel of a coach. We have removed the sack from the wheel and also used a fire extinguisher. The train halted for around 15-30 minutes. A thorough check will be carried out at Brahmapur station," Railway officer Basanta Kumar Satpathy said.
The incident comes a month after the triple-train accident in Balasore involving the Chennai-bound Coromandel Express, the Howrah-bound Shalimar Express and a goods train claimed at least 291 lives and injured over 1000.
The Centra Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested three Raiway officials in connection with the accident. (ANI)
