I was going on Rajdhani express from Gauhati to Delhi with my daughters.The train had halted at NJP station .It stops there for some minutes.I got down to have a streamy cup of coffee and snacks.And I became so engrossed in buying that I completely forgot that train was about to move.Someone from behind yelled at me to rush as the train was picking up pace . I started running fast with coffee in one hand and Kurkure in another.Just as I was near the steps the train became fast and I was about fall under it but a kind passenger who was witness to all this suddenly pulled me somehow throwing the coffee and I was saved by his quick action and presence of mind .

The silly that I was I should have thrown the coffee before only .Sometimes we just don’t think about consequences of our actions and do things which we regret whole life, that is if we still have a life .Had it not been for that gentleman I would have not been here on Quora narrating my idiotic action. Sometimes we are so muting hurry that we just ignore simple safety measures And it so very common in India .People boarding moving train and then landing in hospitals /mortuary.

I had a narrow escape and a creepy encounter during to my irresponsible behaviour
