Gurugram, Aug 16 (IANS) Three youths, who had gone out to enjoy the holiday on Independence Day, died after being hit by a train in Gurugram district, police said.
The incident took place on Monday when the Rewari-Delhi diesel multiple unit (DMU) train ran over three youths while going from Garhi to Pataudi in Gurugram district.
According to the police, the incident took place when the victims reached the other track to avoid the train coming from one side.
All three died on the spot. As soon as the information was received, the Government Railway Police reached the spot and sent the bodies for post-mortem.
The deceased have been identified as Faizan Ahmed, Adil and Sahul. All three were residents of Bijnor in Uttar Pradesh and used to work as carpenters.
According to the police, when the three reached the railway track, the passenger train from Delhi was moving towards Rewari and to avoid it they went on the down track.
The victims did not pay attention to the Rewari-Delhi DMU coming on the down track and all three died after being hit by the train.
Bharatiya Kisan Union leader Rakesh Tikait on Wednesday announced that they will continue the peaceful protest here and will not obstruct any official day to day activities. He said that farmers across the state will continue the agitation on the lines of ongoing protests at the Delhi borders.
The drug money is allegedly linked with the seizure of 17 kg heroin, which was recovered by the police in Amritsar (Rural) on August 26 after arresting Ranjit Singh, alias Sonu.
The demands included an FIR and strict action against SDM Ayush Sinha, who on August 28 instructed the police to beat the protesting farmers. A video-clip of Sinha ordering the force to smash the farmers' heads had stirred a row after it went viral on social media.
Amid farmers protest in Karnal, former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda said on Wednesday that the government should avoid confrontation with the farmers and find amicable solution. He said confrontation is not good as farmers have every right to protest peacefully for their demands.
This agreement would set an institutional mechanism for partnership and cooperation between India and Portugal on sending and accepting Indian workers and a Joint Committee will be set up to follow up the implementation of the same.
