Wrongdoers in Bihar can do that easier and faster — all they need is a one rupee coin! No, they do not pull the chain or snap the hose-pipe. Instead, they change the signal. Here's a lowdown on the novel method they employ to do this. The miscreants place a one rupee coin on the tracks between the two points (joints), connected by an isolator. By inserting the metallic coin between the joints, the electric circuit is maintained for the time being and the fibre isolation eventually changes the railway signal. As the train stops, passengers get down or board the train as per their convenience. <.....>
