Less than 48 hours after the train crash, which was described as one of the worst in Indian railway history, rescuers combed through the victims' belongings at the rail mishap site in Odisha's Balasore district. They found scattered sheets of paper with Bengali love poems written on them lying on the tracks next to a crumpled coach of the Coromandel Express.

The notes on the torn diary pages, which had drawings of elephants, fish, and the sun on the other side, were likely penned by a passenger whose identity is still unknown during their free time.

A different unfinished poetry read, "Bhalobeshei toke chai sarakhhon, achis tui moner sathe," on a separate loose paper.(With love, I need you constantly; you are always on my mind.) These were described as "heart rending" and as evidence that "life was unpredictable" by online users.\

According to local police authorities, nobody has yet come forward to claim the poetry or any connection to the poet, whose fate is still unknown.
