A Rajasthan man was arrested for driving his Mahindra Thar on a railway track in Jaipur on Monday. The man, who was said to be drunk, had taken his Thar on the tracks to make a reel for social media.

However, the Thar got stuck when he tried to drive it off the tracks on seeing a train approaching from the opposite side.

Fortunately, the pilot noticed the Thar and was able to stop the train in time.

A video of the man has gone viral on social media, where he can be seen trying to remove the vehicle from the tracks with the help of some people and police officials standing around.

As soon as he pulled his car out with the help of others there, he fled the spot and reportedly hit three persons on the way.

The police chased the car and arrested him.

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).
