In a video going viral on the internet, a man was seen lying under a moving train, trying to save himself at Kahalgaon railway station in Bihar's Bhagalpur district. According to locals, the person was crossing the railway track to catch the train, and in between the goods train was standing on the track. The man started crossing under the goods train in a hurry. Meanwhile, the goods train opened.
Due to this the person lay down on his stomach in the middle of the railway track to save his life and the goods train kept passing over him. After passing the train, he stood and came to the other side.
Earlier in another incident, a 54-year-old woman was run over by a Vande Bharat train near Gujarat's Anand on Tuesday, PTI quoted police as saying. The incident comes on the back of multiple instances of Vande Bharat train colliding with cattle in Gujarat.
