The Federal Government Inspector of Railways (FGIR), Aamir Nisar Chaudhry, will conduct an inquiry into the causes of the Rehman Baba train accident, which was the derailment of the Rehman Baba Express (47-Up). The hearings are set for October 17 and 18, 2026, in Multan. The FGIR is the federal official who looks into railway accidents on behalf of the government.
Dates, venue and timing
A Pakistan Railways spokesperson said on Wednesday that the inquiry will begin at 9:00 am on both days. The sessions will be held in the committee room of the Divisional Superintendent of Pakistan Railways in Multan. The two dates fall on a Saturday and a Sunday.
How to share information
People with information about the derailment can appear before the FGIR at the Multan venue on the scheduled dates to record their statements. Those who cannot attend can send written information to the FGIR office at the Pakistan Railways Headquarters Office on Allama Iqbal Road, Lahore, by October 22, 2026, which is a Thursday.
What the notice does not say
The announcement does not state when the derailment took place, what caused it, or how many people were affected. It also gives no findings and does not say when the inquiry's conclusions will be released. Until the inquiry is complete, the cause of the Rehman Baba train accident remains unconfirmed.
