Shocking Safety Failure at Barauni Junction: Worker Crushed to Death While Coupling Between 2 Trains

A tragic incident unfolded at Barauni Junction, where a railway worker, Amar Kumar (35), was crushed to death while uncoupling an engine from a bogie.

The horrifying accident, which was caught on camera, shows the worker trapped between the engine and the train for over two hours.

Despite efforts to raise the alarm, the driver fled the scene, and it took railway authorities two hours to move the train and remove the body.

The incident has sparked outrage among passengers and workers alike, with calls for accountability and immediate action to improve safety measures.

This is just the latest in a string of safety failures in Indian Railways, raising questions about the agency's commitment to ensuring the safety of its workers and passengers.
