00:00 You must have heard stories of rich people.
00:03 In India, from Ambani to Adani, there are many rich people who have their own private jets.
00:08 But have you heard of anyone in India who has a private train?
00:12 You may not have heard this because in India, the railway is under the Indian government.
00:16 It is the property of the government, but a person became the owner of the Suman Shatabdi Express.
00:21 It certainly happened that the only Indian who had a train,
00:25 became the owner of the train due to a big mistake of the railway.
00:30 And started taking part in the earnings from the train sitting at home.
00:32 Now let's tell you the whole interesting matter that what mistake did the railway make?
00:37 Actually, this matter is related to the land acquisition of the railway.
00:41 In this matter, the railway made a mistake that was too heavy for it.
00:45 And the farmer had taken over the Suman Shatabdi Express.
00:49 Interestingly, in 2017, in this matter, the farmer of Punjab took over the entire train with the order of the court.
00:58 The person we are talking about is Sampoorn Singh.
01:02 And he is from the Katana village of Ludhiana.
01:05 One day, he suddenly became the owner of the train going from Delhi to Amritsar, Suman Shatabdi Express.
01:11 After which he also came in the headlines.
01:13 It so happened that when the Ludhiana-Chandigarh Railway was being built, in 2007, the railway bought the land of the farmers.
01:20 At that time, the land was acquired for Rs. 25 lakh per acre.
01:25 But the matter was trapped when the same big land was acquired for Rs. 71 lakh per acre in a nearby village.
01:32 Sampoorn Singh did not understand why this was done.
01:37 So, because of this, he decided to take a big step.
01:40 Because of this, Sampoorn Singh came to the court with a complaint.
01:45 The first order given by the court increased the compensation amount from Rs. 25 lakh to Rs. 50 lakh.
01:51 Then increased it to more than Rs. 1 crore 47 lakh.
01:55 The first complaint was filed in 2012.
01:58 The court had ordered to pay the Uttari Railway by 2015.
02:03 The railway only paid Rs. 42 lakh.
02:06 But they did not pay Rs. 1 crore 5 lakh.
02:10 The railway was unable to pay such a big amount.
02:13 When the railway was unable to pay the amount,
02:16 then in 2017, the District and 17 District Court Judges, Jaspal Verma,
02:21 ordered to shut down the train at Ludhiana station.
02:25 The station master's office also had to be shut down.
02:28 With the lawyers, Sampoorn Singh reached the station and the train was shut down.
02:34 He was the train's owner.
02:36 He became the only person in India who was the train's owner.
02:41 However, the section engineer had got the train released in 5 minutes through the court.
02:48 If the train had gone down, hundreds of people would have been in trouble.
02:52 According to the reports, the matter is still going on in the court.
02:55 And the person is still taking the earnings from the train.
02:59 This matter is quite shocking.
03:01 And whoever hears about this, thinks that
03:04 if only he could become the owner of a train and take part in its earnings.
