Mumbai Police was recently lauded for helping migrant workers board a train, which was travelling from the capital of Maharashtra to West Bengal. The cops reportedly ran after a ‘Shramrik Special’ and flagged it down to help the batch of migrant workers get on board at the last minute. A video of the heartwarming incident was shared on Twitter by a citizen group, who work to fight hunger in Mumbai, called ‘Khaana Chahiye’.
According to the Twitter post, the incident occurred when a batch of migrant workers arrived late to the station and was left behind by the last train going to West Bengal. In the video, one can hear loud cheers of ‘Mumbai Police Zindabad’ while the workers managed to board their train to Howrah. The cops ran behind the train to stop and the volunteers, on the other hand, volunteers raced across the platform with workers' luggage to help them board the train.
