In Bihar state of India if you are travelling by train then you are really at God's mercy.

The safety of millions of passengers in trains passing through Bihar is hanging in the balance even as Railway Minister Lalu Prasad and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar are busy playing the blame game.

Several incidents of banditry on running trains have been reported from Bihar in the last few weeks. But neither railway officials nor state police are ready to walk the extra mile to check such crimes.

"Passenger safety and security has been left to god's mercy as the railways and the state government are engaged in a blame game," a senior police official in Bihar said on condition of anonymity.

Around 150 trains pass through Bihar every day.
