Six women killed after being hit by train while crossing tracks in UP’s Mirzapur

“The Chopan Express had stopped at platform number four. Instead of using the foot overbridge, some passengers tried to alight directly onto the tracks and were run over by the approaching train,” Amit Singh, Public Relations Officer, NCR Prayagraj Division told PTI.

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath expressed deep sorrow over the incident and extended his condolences to the families of the deceased. He also instructed local authorities to reach the scene promptly and carry out swift rescue and relief operations.
