RPF Officer Rescues Woman Trapped Between Train and Platform at Shivpuri Station

Shivpuri railway station in Madhya Pradesh witnessed a close‑call on Tuesday when a female commuter became wedged between a train and the platform as the train started to move. Witnesses reported that the woman was attempting to board the train when the doors closed, leaving her partially on the tracks.

An RPF (Railway Protection Force) constable on duty noticed the situation and rushed to the scene. Despite the train’s motion, the officer managed to reach the trapped passenger, secure her, and pull her back onto the platform, preventing a potential fatality.

Local authorities confirmed that the train was brought to a halt briefly to facilitate the rescue, and no injuries were reported apart from the initial entrapment. The incident underscores the importance of passenger vigilance and rapid response by railway security personnel.

The RPF officer’s prompt action has been praised by commuters and railway officials, who emphasized that safety protocols are being reinforced to avoid similar mishaps in the future.
