Mumbai: Train stunts kill 20-year-old ambulance driver from Kalyan

A
20-year-old man from Kalyan died while performing stunts in a local train
between Diva and Mumbra. This comes close on the heels of another such case in
the city, when a teenager fell to death after hitting a pole between Mumbra and
Kalwa two weeks ago.

At the time,
Tishad got hit by the pole in front of him. In this, he suffered a head injury
and died without treatment. Recently, the deaths of adventurers in the electric
train have been a series of stories.

This incident brought the number of such deaths on the Central Railway’s suburban section to four this year.

The deaths
come despite safety campaigns by railway authorities urging commuters not to
perform stunts or hang out of running trains. Between January and November, the
Central GRP booked 17 people for performing stunts on trains and more than 500
for standing on footboards.
