Tana Bhagats, tribals who follow Mahatma Gandhi as their idol, today sat on dharna along railway tracks in Tori station in the Latehar district of Jharkhand.

As a result, the Delhi- Ranchi Rajdhani Express train remained stranded at Daltongunj railway station causing untold miseries to passengers.

Ultimately, many of them got down from the train and boarded buses to reach Ranchi, it is learnt.

The Tana Bhagats had paralysed the train traffic to press their demand - land deeds. The state administration preferred to remain silent on their demand.
