Watch: Brave RPF Personnel Saves Man Who Slipped While Trying To Board Train In Ahmadabad
In a chilling incident, a man narrowly escaped death while he tried to board a moving train at Ahmedabad Railway Station. This was all thanks to an alert Railway Protection Force (RPF) personnel reached him just in time and managed to save his life.
The video of the incident went viral on social media. The video shows two passengers at the station - one of them manages to board the moving train while the other fails miserably and ends up slipping under the train. He loses his grip and gets dragged along. Without wasting any time, an RPF personnel at the station, notices the man and rushes to save him.
The video shared by the Ministry of Railways, on Twitter, urged passengers to refrain from boarding moving trains with the caption, ¡®We request our esteemed passengers not to board a moving train at the platform. RPF Staff saved the life of this Passenger at Ahmedabad station but one may not be so lucky every time.¡¯

Really that man as lucky
Earlier this week, Ministry of Railways posted another video that showed a similar incident. A man was pushed into the coach by RPF personnel while he attempted to board a moving train and slipped under the train during the act.
We've all been warned only about a million times to not try to board moving trains. Is there a good enough reason to risk your life due to sloppiness, ignorance and lack of patience?
