CAG: Poor state of tracks key cause of derailments

The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) has found lack of maintenance of tracks, slow pace of track renewal and deviation of track parameters as the main reasons for majority of such train mishaps. The CAG report said track machines remained idle for want of required traffic blocks by the operating departments, divisions not planning the blocks and operational issues.
