The RPF personnel identified as Shivam Singh gave a hard sprint to save a passenger’s life who was trying to board a moving train at Raipur station.

The video opens to show the train leaving the platform. Within moments, a person, carrying several bags, tries to enter one of the compartments and loses balance. Singh, almost instantly, pulls the passenger back to safety.

“Life Saving Act by RPF personnel: RPF Constable Shri Shivam Singh gave a hard sprint to save the life of passenger at Raipur station. We once again request passengers to avoid boarding/deboarding a moving train. It can put your life in danger,” the department wrote while sharing the video.

Since being posted, it has gathered nearly 10,000 views from people. While some urged for stricter punishments for people boarding or de-boarding moving trains, others praised the constable for his quick actions.

Often the department shares advisory tweets to warn people about the dangers of boarding or deboaring moving trains.
