Etawah, September 7

It was a miracle of sorts when Bhola Singh survived after 17 coaches of the intercity train passed over him at Bharthana railway station of Etawah district.

The incident took place when Bhola slipped on the railway track while trying to board the general class of Agra Fort-Lucknow junction intercity.

A viral video of the incident shows the train passing through while Bhola lies low in the narrow space between the platform and the railway track.

Bharthana police outpost in charge, Ram Babu Singh, said, “The train was leaving the station when Bhola ran to catch it. During his attempt to board the train, he slipped but miraculously survived. He was taken to a clinic, where he was given first-aid.” IANS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
