Maoists allegedly blasted a railway track between Bhalui Halt and Jamui railway stations on the East Central Railway leading to suspension of traffic on Patna-Howrah line for several hours on the second day of their bandh against Nandigram violence.
The down track was blown up in a stretch of two-and-a-half metres soon after midnight following which traffic was also suspended on the up track as a precautionary measure, ECR spokesman A K Chandra said.
He said a light engine was run on the up track to look for any explosives in the morning after which traffic on Patna-Howrah line was resumed on the up line around 7 am on Tuesday.
The down track is likely to be restored by this evening. Maoists have called a 48-hour bandh in West Bengal, Jharkhand and Bihar against the violence in Nandigram.
