A man's life was crippled in front of his eyes while falling from a moving train in western India's Maharashtra on November 14. The incident took place at Kalyan Railway Station.

CCTV footage features the passenger attempting to board the moving locomotive, following which he loses balance and slides down in the gap between the train and the platform, posing a threat to life as he gets dragged along the coach. Luckily, alert railway personnel rushes and pulls the passenger to safety to avoid any tragedy while the panic-stricken crowd runs towards the fellow to tend to him.

In a life-saving act, the on-duty pointsman, identified as Shivji Singh, showed vigilance and rescued the citizen who got dragged along the moving compartment while boarding it at the railway station.
