MUMBAI: A child fell from a running suburban train and died every third day on Western Railway and Central Railway’s main and harbour lines in 2019. At railway claims tribunal, which adjudicates on compensation for accidents victims, 119 cases were filed of children aged below 15 who died after falling from running trains in 2019.
Sources said it was shocking and showed how dangerously children travel in suburban trains.
The network witnesses more than 3,000 deaths and a similar number of people lose limbs or are partially disabled either after falling from trains or due to trespassing.
The source said, “Most children who died were going to play an outdoor sport far away from their residence or were headed to tourist spots. They may have been travelling dangerously or performing stunts, risking their lives. Although the figures are for 2019, the trend seems similar every year. Most of the deaths were on weekends on holidays.�
