A one-year-old infant had a miraculous escape today after slipping off her mother’s arms and falling off on to the railway tracks from where a train had just started to move out. The incident took place at Mathura railway station in the state of Uttar Pradesh in India.

One of the passengers filmed the incident on his mobile phone. In the video, the infant is seen lying helplessly even as the train rumbles down the track. The infant’s legs were touching the outer rails, and as the wheels of the trains contact the rails from inside, she had a narrow escape from being run over.

As soon as the last bogie of the train chugs out, a man jumps on to the track and picks the girl up and hands her over to her anxious family members waiting on the platform. The family members and others gathered around chant Lord Krishna’s name (who is believed to have been born in Mathura according to the epic Mahabharata) on the miraculous escape of the child.

Pawan Mishra, a local resident, informed, “The baby’s father, identified as Sonu, was alighting from the train and there was a jostle from passengers behind him in a rush to get off the train. In the melee, his wife, who was holding the infant, got shoved and the baby slipped off from her arms and fell onto the railway track through the narrow gap between the platform and the train. Luckily, the infant fell on to one side of the track and escaped being run over.”

After the infant is reunited with her parents, the railway and police authorities take the shaken parents and child to one side, and make sure that the child the is completely unhurt.
