In the video, a child holding the hand of his visually impaired mother accidentally slipped and fell onto the tracks. The startled mother anxiously looked around, desperately searching for the child.

The child also tried to climb back onto the platform but was unable to do so alone. Seeing this, station worker Mayur Shelke ran along the tracks to rescue the child.

Mayur saved the child just moments before a train arrived and immediately climbed back onto the platform. About two seconds after he rescued the child, the train passed by.

The Indian Ministry of Railways called Mayur a "true hero," praising him by saying, "He risked his life to save the child. We salute his exemplary courage and dedication."

Railway Minister Piyush Goyal also publicly praised Mayur's brave actions. He stated, "Although his actions cannot be compared to money or awards, we will provide compensation for his humane act."
