Shocking! Strong Winds Drag Refrigerator On Railway Track At Jabalpur Station; Video Goes Viral

Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh): Strong winds wreaked havoc in Jabalpur on Tuesday night. The wind was so full of force that it dragged a heavy refrigerator kept outside a confectionary store on the platform of Jabalpur railway station and pushed it on the railway track.

The incident, captured on video, is now going viral on social media.

In the video, the fridge can be clearly seen sliding off the platform before landing on the railway track. The shopkeeper tried to chase the refrigerator, but couldn't save it.

Check out the video below :

The fridge reportedly slid and flew off the platform without any support during the strong winds, landing directly on the track. Luckily, no train was approaching at that moment, or it could have caused a major accident.

If a train had arrived, it could have collided with the fridge, leading to damage to the train, derailment, or even injuries to passengers. The fridge might have bounced back due to the pressure of the moving train and could have hit passengers or caused damage elsewhere on the platform.

As soon as the railway authorities were informed about the incident, the fridge was quickly removed from the track to prevent any disruption or mishap.

The incident has sparked concerns over the railway administration's negligence, especially for allowing heavy appliances like fridges and machines to be placed on platforms without proper safety measures.

People are now raising questions about safety arrangements at stations, especially during extreme weather conditions.
