Taking to X, party leader and Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray's son Aaditya said the incident reflects "incapable" the minister is. "Wish the reel minister was a rail minister for once. The incident at Bandra only reflects how incapable the current Railways Minister is. The BJP has made Ashwini Vaishnav ji a Prabhari for BJP Maharashtra for elections, but every week there are some incidents and accidents that occur with the railways. Such a shame that our country has been forced under such incapable ministers," he said.
The Opposition uses the "reel minister" expression to take jabs at the Railways Minister over incidents of derailments and train accidents. Riled by the offensive, the minister said in Parliament in August, "We're not just people who make reels, we're people who work hard."
