  "summary": "The Dakshin Express, a train traveling from New Delhi to Hyderabad, struck and killed over 195 sheep between Bibinagar and Ghatkesar railway stations in Telangana early Tuesday morning. The incident occurred around 2:32 a.m. on September 29, as reported by railway officials. A shepherd named Balamoni Kistaiah, 70, claimed ownership of the sheep and said he had brought them to East City near Bibinagar about a month ago for grazing. Kistaiah had kept the flock inside an enclosure on Monday night before going to sleep, only to find the sheep missing upon his return. He searched the surrounding area and discovered the animals dead on the railway tracks. Kistaiah suspected that dogs or wild boars may have chased the flock, causing the sheep to move towards the railway tracks and be run over by the passing train.",
