The urgency and swift reflex of the officer touched the hearts of online users and has been earning many plaudits.


On 22 October, the lady, identified as Ambisha Khatoon, attempted to exit a moving Gwalior-Barauni Express train when she tragically slid into the gap between the platform and the train. She was then rescued by an RPF officer who was present on the scene. Though the footage was not that clear to understand the consequence of the happening, the woman was successfully lifted up on the platform’s surface, as per reports.

A person noted, “It’s really commendable that RPF is providing attention while trains are coming or leaving the platform. Their remarkable job should be honored.”


A user lauded, “Well done, must say railways have improved a lot in the last 4 years, the response, the speed in booking tickets etc is commendable. Life-saving of passengers at peak.”


An individual marked, “Great commitment to duty.”


Here are some other notable reactions:


The victim, Khatoon is reportedly a native of the Bihar town of Narkatiaganj. On that day, she needed to use the toilet, but she soon realised that platform number 3 was devoid of any toilets. The Gwalior-Barauni Express arrived at the station in the middle of that and she hopped onto the train so she could use the restroom there. But in some moments, the train began to leave the station. As she desperately tried to exit the train, she ended up squeezing herself into the gap between the train and the platform.
