CCTV footage shows two passengers rushing towards the woman and quickly dragging her to safety. Moments later, some policemen came to aid her.
A horrific moment caught on camera in Mumbai's Vasai Road railway station. While boarding a moving train, a 71-year-old woman slipped and got stuck into the gap between the platform—however, thanks to her husband and other passengers who saved her from being crushed under the train.
On Saturday, the episode occurred when the woman, a Hyderabad resident, attempted to board the Bhavnagar-Kakinada train. She lost balance and fell, and got caught in between the platform gap. Fortunately, two passengers and her husband rushed towards the woman and pulled her to safety. Moments later, the train stopped, and police staff and people at the station rushed to check if she was okay.
After being posted online, the video went crazy viral, and many users questioned a woman's activities and were criticised for risking her life. Others praised the passengers who saved her and hoped that the woman was okay. Watch the video.
