Mumbai Police Constable Dies After Hitting By Local Train In Nalasopara:

Earlier this month, a  32-year-old police constable was killed after being hit by a train at Nalasopara station on the Western Line of Mumbai's suburban local train network. The incident took place when the cop was attempting to cross the tracks in a rush to work. The victim, Ganesh Raul, was attached to the Samata Nagar police station in Kandivali. He lived in Nalasopara with his wife and children.

According to Assistant Commissioner of Police Kailash Barve, Raul had requested permission to report to duty late that day. As he was already behind schedule, he chose to skip the foot overbridge and tried to cross directly from the tracks to catch his regular Churchgate-bound train from platform 4.
