Stones were hurled at a Vande Bharat train in Uttarakhand on Thursday, damaging one of the windows and triggering a panic among passengers.

The police have arrested a 22-year-old over the incident.

The Vande Bharat train was en route to Lucknow from Dehradun when the stones were hurled at it near Kharanja Qutubpur village on the Laksar-Moradabad railway section, the police said.

One of the windows of Coach 6 developed a large crack.

The loco pilot informed the control room in Moradabad and the information was passed on to the Railway Police Force (RPF).

A team from the RPF reached Kharanja Qutubpur village and arrested 22-year-old Salman after making inquiries.

A case has been registered against the accused.
