The RPF is known for saving people from similar incidents. There have been multiple instances when alert RPF constables have either saved or rescued people from such accidents. Earlier in June, a man fell down as he tried to board a moving train. He was about to fall in the gap between the train and the platform. However, an alert RPF constable rushed at the right time to pick him up. The incident was reported from Mumbai's Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (LTT). 

Similarly in May, an RPF jawan was seen saving a pregnant woman and a child's life at Dadar station in Mumbai. According to the video that surfaced on social media, a pregnant woman and child were seen falling on the platform from a running train. The woman was trying to board the moving Danapur express train along with her child. However, she fell down after she missed a step. As it happened, the RPF staff rushed towards her and saved her life.
