Aluva: The Thiruvananthapuram-Kasaragod Vande Bharat Express experienced a gas leak with smoke in the C5 coach of the train on Wednesday.

The incident occurred between Kalamassery and Aluva stations forcing the train to hit the brakes at an unscheduled stop at Aluva.

Preliminary findings suggest the air conditioning system may be the source of the gas leak. The passengers did not face any physical difficulties as they were shifted from C5 to another coach immediately. The train commenced journey from Aluva at 9.20am after the problem was resolved.
