He also met some of the injured in the hospital."I do not have words to express my pain... No one would be spared and strong action would be taken against those found guilty. Instructions have been given to ensure the proper and speedy investigation into the tragedy," Modi said, adding that more focus will be given to the security of rail passengers.
