This incident is proof of how dangerous it can be to get off a moving train. Such incidents often happen at railway stations when passengers try to board or deboard the train before it stops. Such negligence can lead to serious accidents.
Divisional Railway Manager Dinesh Verma has appealed to the passengers to give priority to their safety and never try to board or deboard a moving train. Board or deboard the train only after it has come to a complete stop, and follow the instructions of the railway staff.
He has appealed to the passengers not to try to get on and off the moving train nor to show haste in crossing the tracks. A little carelessness can cost your life. Accidents can be avoided only by being aware. Small mistakes of passengers are causing major accidents. It is important to follow all the rules and not put your life at risk.
