Six passengers died and 29 others were injured early on Sunday, when a rail fracture caused 11 bogies of the Delhi-bound Seemanchal Express to jump the tracks in Bihar's Vaishali district.

In a statement issued here, Adityanath instructed officials to co-ordinate with officials of the Railways and the Bihar government, and immediately provide relief to the people affected from the state.
