A clip shared by CISF on its Twitter handle shows a passenger walking while talking on the phone and suddenly falling on the track at Shahdara Metro Station.
CISF constable, Rohtas, on patrolling duty, immediately jumped on the track and lifted the passenger to safety.

Last year December, a Railway Protection Force (RPF) officer saved the life of a woman who almost fell in the gap between the train and the platform as she lost her balance trying to get off a moving express train at Bengal's Purulia station.

In the video, two women are seen jumping off the Santragachi-Anand Vihar Express just as it gathered speed. While one of them lands on the platform, the other lost her balance and swerved dangerously close to the gap between the train and platform.
This is when RPF Sub-Inspector Bablu Kumar ran in and pulled her away onto the platform just in time and saved her life. Many others were also seen rushing in to help the woman, including a passenger who tried to jump in to save her.
