Three buffaloes were killed after wandering on to the track, highlighting the need to build fences around the tracks to permit the trains to travel at higher speeds.
The Railway Protection Force (RPF) in Gujarat has registered a case against the owners of buffaloes that were hit by the Mumbai-Gandhinagar Vande Bharat express, in which the front portion of the train was damaged, officials said on Friday.
The railway police have not yet been able to identify the owners of the buffaloes so far. The incident occurred in the Punitnagar area near Vatva railway station on the outskirts of Ahmedabad city.
