Man jumps to death in front of Metro train at Kashmere Gate station, service disrupted for an hour
A man died after jumping in front of an approaching Metro train at the Kashmere Gate Metro station on Thursday morning, police said, ruling out foul play and adding that a suicide note was recovered from the person’s belongings.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) said the incident disrupted Metro operations for around one hour, between 11.15am and noon. During the disruption, services were run in a short loop on the Red Line from Rithala to Tis Hazari and on another loop from Shastri Park to Shaheed Sthal, also on the Red Line.
“A male passenger allegedly jumped in front of an approaching train at the Kashmere Gate Metro station (going towards Shaheed Sthal, New Bus Adda) at 11:16 AM today. The body was retrieved from tracks and was sent to the nearest hospital around 12:04 pm after police clearance,” a statement by DMRC said.
