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.
The meeting witnessed freewheeling interaction by the Prime Minister with the delegation on diverse topics like farmer welfare, youth empowerment, drug free society, National Educational Policy, skilling, employment, technology and Punjab's overall development trajectory.
The students will be provided jobs in Punjab and the UAE, Canada, Europe, Japan and other countries. Sahney is already running two World Skill Centres in New Delhi and Amritsar, providing free skills and jobs to thousands of youth.
The Gurugram police had put up barricades at several entry points on the National Highway, at Shankar Chowk, Iffco Chowk, Signature Tower, Rajiv Chowk and Hero Honda Chowk on the Expressway.
The toffees, according to reports, had been thrown outside their houses and the children picked them and ate them. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has expressed grief over the incident and ordered a probe and directed officials concerned to provide relief to the bereaved families and take necessary action in the matter.
All the victims were migrant workers from Chapra district Bihar and were asleep when the fire broke out. Barring one, the rest were between 23 and 35 years of age. Short circuit is suspected to have caused the fire.
After paying glowing tributes to legendary martyrs Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev here at state-level function in Hussaniwala, the Chief Minister unveiled the anti-corruption number -- 950 120 0200.
