PDIP Legislators Highlight Treatment Related To Two Incidents Of Anjlok Train

JAKARTA - The chairman of Commission V of the DPR from the PDI-P faction, Lasarus, suspects that the maintenance of trains (KA) and electric rail trains (KRL) and their lines, which are public transportation, are not optimal.

This statement was conveyed regarding the drop in the Argo Bromo Anggrek train related to Surabaya Pasar Turi-Gambir in Subang, West Java, and KRL at Jakarta Kota Station.

"Yes, that's why I said earlier, I said that it was the treatment, that's it, the maintenance doesn't seem optimal," Lasarus told reporters, quoted on Thursday, August 7.

According to him, the train has fallen due to technical problems in the facilities and infrastructure that include maintenance of train and lane units.

"For example, does he have a problem with the rail, or maybe on his troubled train, both of them allow him to remain the drop," said Lasarus.

The PDI-P politician revealed that his party received information that the two train incidents had not been caused by landslides, so certain errors were the main factors in the incident.

"But neither of these have landslides, this landslide factor does not exist. That could be a problem on the rail or train," said Lasarus.

Previously, the Argo Bromo Anggrek train related to Surabaya Pasar Turi-Gambir fell at the Pegaden Baru Station, Subang, West Java, on Friday, August 1.

As a result, 80 train trips were canceled and 42 other trips were diverted via the Purwokerto-Kroya-Bandung turnover.

In addition, the KRL Commuter Line also fell at Jakarta Kota Station and caused the most popular public transportation trips in the capital to be disrupted.
