Young Couple on Photoshoot Jumps From 90-Feet Rail Bridge as Train Arrives, Disturbing Video Emerges

Jaipur: There have been multiple instances across India where people were injured or even lost their lives while making reels or clicking pictures for the sake of their social media, as per media reports.

In a similar instance, Rahul Mewada (22) and his wife Jahnvi (20) were doing a photo shoot on a railway bridge ignoring an approaching train which left them injured later. The incident occurred in Rajasthan's Pali.

Disturbing visuals of the same emerged.

The couple hails from Kalal Ki Pipaliyan in Bagdi Nagar and were accompanied by Rahul's sister and brother-in-law. The couple decided to have a photoshoot on the heritage bridge which was designed for the meter gauge train.

When the husband and wife saw the train approaching, in a panic, the couple jumped from the bridge, causing them serious injuries. Rahul was transferred to Jodhpur for further treatment due to severe spinal injuries, while Jahnvi is under treatment for a leg fracture at Bangar Hospital.

Meanwhile, Rahul's sister and brother-in-law managed to escape this unscathed incident by running away when they saw the train approaching.

Furthermore, Senior Commercial Divisional Manager of Ajmer Railway Division, Sunil Kumar Mahala, commented on the incident, stating that the train’s loco pilot had begun braking upon spotting the couple on the bridge. Despite the train halting on the bridge, the couple’s fear led them to jump, resulting in their injuries.
