A woman and her two children in India miraculously survived after a train went over them at a railway station in the eastern state of Bihar.
Videos of the incident on Saturday (Dec 24) showed the woman crouched over her children on the railway tracks as the train sped through the station.
All three survived without a scratch, news agency NDTV reported, citing officials.
According to NDTV, the woman and her children were at Bihar’s Barh Railway Station to board the Vikramshila Express – a train service that connects Bhagalpur, a city in Bihar, to the capital of New Delhi – with her family.
However, the woman and her two children were pushed off the platform and fell onto the tracks when a large group of passengers rushed to board the train.
In the video, after the speeding train left the station, frantic passengers raced to save the three of them, pulling them back onto the platform.
Local officials also said the woman’s husband, who was separated from his family, jumped from the train and ran back to the station.
NDTV reported that the woman and her children were sent to a nearby hospital for medical checkup and their condition was stable.
