Built in close proximity to Naini Jail, a notorious prison, even to this day, of suffering and oppression during India’s fight for independence, this railway station bears witness to a history stained with blood and tears. And if we are to believe the local legends, some of the freedom fighters are said to haunt the train station.
Freedom Fighters from Naini Jail
For generations, Naini Jail served as a grim reminder of, not only what happens to criminals, but of British colonial rule and was a place where countless souls were imprisoned, tortured, and ultimately laid to rest. Some of them simply fight for their motherland.
Among these were the freedom fighters who dared to challenge the might of the empire like Motilal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Jawahar Lal Nehru (the first prime minister of India), Govind Ballabh Pant, Narendra Dev, Rafi Ahmed Kidwai, Hasrat Mohani, all of these were imprisoned there during Indian independence movement.
It is from the freedom fighter movement the ghosts haunting the station are said to come from.
The Haunting of Naini Railway Station
Legend has it that the souls of the dead roam the grounds of Naini Railway Station and its surrounding tracks. Locals speak of spectral apparitions that wander the deserted platforms, their silent footsteps echoing through the stillness.
Although believed that the ghost must be the freedom fighters, there are not really any particular names attached to it, how many or what they are doing at the railway station.
Many believe that the tortured souls of the freedom fighters, denied their rightful place in history, are now haunting the area. Although their presence scares the passengers, it is said that the souls haunting the station is harmless.
