Drone footage shows a train moving through Tongi, Dhaka with its roof ๐ฅ packed with passengers. There is barely an inch of free space, and some people are even hanging from the open doors ๐ช.
Bangladesh's trains run on diesel and have no overhead lines, but along this stretch, electric wires โก and cables run close to the track on both sides. A passenger on the roof could touch a live wire, hit a low cable, or fall from the moving train ๐จ. In such a crowd, nobody has room to duck or move away.
This video is made for public awareness ๐ข only, not to blame any passenger. We hope it shows how serious the risk is, so everyone reaches their destination safely ๐.
๐ก๏ธ Safety Tips ๐ซ Never ride on the roof or hang from the doors, even during holiday rush. ๐๏ธ Plan early and buy tickets in advance. โณ If a train is overcrowded, wait for the next one.
