For the unversed, a bogie of the Sabarmati Express train, which departed from Godhra station in Gujarat on February 27, 2002, was set ablaze by a crazed crowd. Riots erupted throughout Gujarat after this event, which murdered 59 persons returning from Ayodhya. Fifteen hundred individuals were named in the Godhra tragedy FIR. Following this occurrence, communal rioting erupted across Gujarat, resulting in a substantial loss of life and property. The government estimates that 1200 individuals lost their lives during the riots.
