In a similar act of quick thinking and bravery, a Railway Protection Force (RPF) constable in Uttarakhand recently saved a man from almost getting crushed by a moving train at Haridwar’s Laksar railway station. The constable, Uma, rushed to help the passenger who had slipped and become trapped between the train and the platform while boarding the Kolkata Jammu Tawi Express. With the help of onlookers, Uma safely pulled the man out after the train made an emergency stop.
