Fraudulent claim on body makes Odisha sound alarm

As several of the dead in the Bahanaga train tragedy continue to remain unidentified, a woman’s fraudulent attempt at claiming one of the bodies as that of her husband’s on Sunday has prompted the Odisha government to sound an alarm. Pradeep Kumar Jena, state chief secretary, on Monday asked the railways and the Odisha police to take action against such fake claimants, who may resort to fraudulent tactics to claim compensation.
