A 45-year-old woman was seriously injured after allegedly attempting suicide by jumping onto the tracks at Rajiv Chowk metro station on Friday morning. The incident occurred at 10.15 am, causing a temporary disturbance at the busy interchange as commuters acted quickly to avert disaster.
Seconds before a train could reach platform number 1, alert commuters pulled the woman away from the tracks, preventing what could have been a tragic incident. Metro police and security teams responded swiftly, taking her to Lady Hardinge Medical College for urgent medical attention.
Currently, the woman is unable to give a statement due to her condition. With no identification documents on hand, police have retrieved a metro ticket originating from Janakpuri East station. Authorities are now reviewing CCTV footage to piece together her identity and the events leading up to this distressing situation.
