Indore: She was talking over phone when train started taking-off on platform. Unable to judge the moment in utter confusion, the girl tried catching hold of the handle, but couldn’t maintain grip, as she was holding her mobile phone in between her palms. Resultantly, she slipped and landed between platform and wheels of train.
She remained trapped in the gap for 20 minutes. But, wheels of the train had run over her foot by the time, chopping-off the limb.
When her brother saw the shocking scenario, he screamed loudly and forced the train-driver to halt the engine. At last, GRP officials arrived at the scene and took her to hospital. The girl is presently under medical care and said to be serious.
The spine-chilling accident occurred at around 5.40 in the evening at platform number 5 on Friday morning. The accident victim is said to be 27-year old Nishi Niranjan Kumar who is working with a private firm in Shimla. She was in the city to attend a job interview.
The girl was accompanied by her brother Mukesh as well. Both had planned to leave for Bhopal in Overnight Express after completion of interview.
As soon as the train managed to take some speed, Mukesh climbed into the train hurriedly but Nishi got delayed as she was talking over phone with someone.
And later, when she tried holding the gate-handle with the same hand in which she was carrying her cell-phone, her grip slipped and she landed between the wheels of train and platform.
