Indian suicidal woman jumps in front of speeding train

A suicidal Indian woman attempting to take her own life at a New Delhi subway station has survived unharmed. The incident is said to have taken place this past June along a deserted train platform.

A cantilever arm of one of the platforms, which supports the elevated platform, was found to be deflected during a routine inspection check on September 16. This had resulted in the sagging of a part of the platform.

Since then, only one of the platforms at the station is functional and the waiting time between trains has increased by 5 to 6 minutes.
