A pregnant passenger went into labour aboard the Pune-Supaul Express near Ahilyanagar station and safely delivered her baby in a crowded general coach. Railway Protection Force personnel were alerted immediately, boarded the train without delay, and provided timely assistance to ensure both mother and child were safe. The swift response turned a tense moment into a relief-filled outcome.
The Railway Protection Force is reportedly preparing on-the-spot penalties up to Rs 2,000 for passengers who board or alight from moving trains. The move targets rising platform accidents and dangerous behavior that can lead to deaths and serious injuries. Along with fines, the RPF plans awareness measures, which could change how commuters navigate stations across India.
