Two alert cops of the Railway Protection Force (RPF) rushed to the aid of an elderly man after he slipped while boarding a moving train in central India's Madhya Pradesh.

This happened at Itarsi railway station on September 12.

CCTV footage captured the chilling moment when the old man was seen being dragged by the train (Ahmedabad-Barauni Express). The two RPF cops--Aravinda Gautam R and Amit Baumne ran with the man, eventually pulling him to safety. Baumne then took a tumble and almost fell into the gap between the train and the platform. But he was also saved and everyone then attended to the old man.

Later, the cops were seen carrying the man on a bed and making their way out of the station. The old man was reportedly admitted to the Government Hospital in Itarsi.
