The different divisions of the Indian Railways often take to their official Twitter handles to share videos that show how dangerous it can be to board or de-board a moving train. Just like this video shared on the Twitter handle dedicated to South Eastern Railway. The clip shows a policeman jumping into action to save a life of a woman after she falls off a moving train.
“Yesterday, 2 lady passengers tried to de-board Santragachi- Anand Vihar Express in running condition at Purulia station. Losing balance, both of them tripped on the platform. Sri Bablu Kumar, on-duty Sub Inspector of RPF, ran immediately and saved them from a fatal accident,” they wrote while explaining the situation.
The video opens to show a train leaving a platform and suddenly two women start getting down. While one of them falls on the platform away from the moving train, the other person lands in a dangerous spot. Almost instantly, a policeman rushes towards the second woman and drags her to safety.
