The woman lost both her hands and one leg while the other leg was also broken. Similarly, the little girl reportedly lost her right hand and one leg, reports said.
The incident occurred when the family was boarding the Korba Express train at Singapur Road Station to go to Kalahandi’s Junagarh. While the little girl’s father managed to board the speeding train, the mother and daughter duo fell off, leading to the mishap.
As the said train stops just for one minute at Singapur Road Station, the family was trying to board the train quickly, reports said. Railway Police rescued the two in critical condition and admitted them to Rayagada District Headquarters Hospital (DHH).
