Eleven cows died on the spot, while several others sustained grievous injuries.
This incident was reported from Lahravan village on Saturday. The cows were possibly hit by a speeding Dehradun Express, which departed for its onward journey after a delay of an hour after the incident.
Locals said the cows were destroying crops in the farms near the Aligarh-Moradabad track and the farmers perhaps “pushed them towards the track in anger”.
Soon after the accident, right wing activists staged a protest and demanded action against those responsible for the death of the cows.
