Amaravati, Aug 9 :Smoke in Tirupati-Secunderabad Vande Bharat Express triggered panic among passengers in Andhra Pradesh’s Nellore district on Wednesday.

The train was stopped at Manubolu after the loco pilot was alerted by the staff.

Passengers de-boarded the train in panic.

The railway staff found smoke emanating from the toilet in one of the coaches. Railway officials said a passenger had thrown a burning cigarette and some waste plastic material had caught fire.

The Railway Protection Force (RPF) identified the man and detained him. He was said to be travelling without a ticket.
