“It is my request to all fellow parliamentarians that we all come forward and donate a part of our salary to help these grief stricken families to help them,” Gandhi said in a tweet.

उड़ीसा की रेल दुर्घटना हृदय विदारक है!

जो परिवार इस हादसे से टूटे हैं हमें उनके साथ चट्टान की तरह खड़ा होना होगा।

मेरा सभी साथी सांसदों से निवेदन है कि हम सभी अपनी तनख्वाह का एक हिस्सा शोक संतप्त परिजनों के नाम कर उनकी मदद के लिए आगे आयें।

पहले उन्हें सहारा मिले, फिर न्याय।
