A young man trapped under a freight train

(Deepshikha Gautam, Intern Journalist) Kanpur: A young man in the grip of a goods train coming to Govind Nagar from Panki dragged him far between the wheels and the track. This cut both his legs from near the heel. When the train stopped at Dada Nagar crossing, the staff working on the track noticed that instead of removing the young man trapped in the train, he informed the control.

After about half an hour, RPF arrived and the young man was evacuated and sent to the hospital. By late evening, the condition of the young man was worrying. RPF in-charge Pyarelal said that around 12:15 pm, it was reported that a youth was trapped in a train parked in Dada Nagar crossing. He went to the scene with the Force. Vimal Tiwari, a resident of Pandu Nagar, was screaming because of a leg from the bottom of the heel. A mobile number found in the young man’s pocket informed his family members. Vimal’s brother Raju and his sister reached the spot. The young man has been sent to the hospital after calling an ambulance.
