Dharmanagar, Feb 03: In a tragic incident, a 58 years old rail worker died on Saturday noon after a train engine rolled over him between Dharmanagar and Panisagar.
The incident took place, after the rail engine, heading towards Panisagar from Dharmanagar rolled over the rail worker identified as Ramdeo Singh of Bihar, who was working along the rail bridge number 99.
Alarmed by the incident, the RPF jawans rushed to the spot, where other railway workers refused to hand over the dead body of their deceased colleague. Later, DRM Prem Ranjan Kumar reached the spot, where the agitated railway workers expressed their concern over the negligent driving of engine in the rail track, which perhaps has caused the death of their deceased colleague.
They also placed certain other demands with the DRM including construction of a main reserve on the rail bridges between Kalkali Ghat to Pecharthal. The DRM listened to their words and assured of taking appropriate enquiry into the death incident and meet their demand.
