In a shocking incident, a man was found hiding dangerously under the Danapur Express’ coach. He had already travelled 290 kilometres from Itarsi to Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh, poised in one posture between the wheels.
The incident came to light in Jabalpur during a rolling test conducted near the Jabalpur railway station by the Carriage and Wagon department staff, only after the man had dangerously travelled close to 300 km, risking his life.

The man confessed that he had boarded the train at Itarsi. As he had no money to buy the ticket, he deemed it fit to risk his life by travelling between the wheels of the train. The Railway Protection Force (RPF) personnel were summoned on the spot.
RPF extracted the man from the hiding spot and took custody of him. It, however, remains unclear how he positioned himself in that hiding spot under the train.
A case has been filed against him and the officials are investigating the matter further.
