According to an Instagram post by eyewitness Manjeet Dhillon, the man noticed the woman in distress and quickly pulled the emergency chain to stop the train. “This man is truly brave, words aren’t enough to describe him. It all started around 1 AM at Ram Mandir station, when he pulled the train’s emergency chain to stop it. I still get chills saying this, the woman’s baby was halfway out, half inside and half outside. At that very moment, it truly felt like God had sent this brother there for a reason,” the post read.
Guided by doctor over video call
The man managed to deliver the baby with the help of a doctor who guided him over a video call. In a video clip shared online, he said, “Pehli baar kiya hai jeevan mein maine yeh. Itna darr lag raha tha na par video call pe madam ne help kiya. (It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. I was very scared, but the madam helped me over video call).”

Dhillon said they tried reaching out to several doctors and calling an ambulance, but it was taking time to arrive. “We all tried our best — we called several doctors, but the ambulance was taking time to arrive. Finally, a female doctor guided him over a video call, and he did exactly what she instructed. His courage in that moment was beyond words,” he added.
Woman earlier denied hospital help
The post also mentioned that the woman’s family had earlier taken her to a nearby hospital, but they were reportedly turned away. They then returned to the train, where she went into labour. “It’s truly shameful that a hospital refused to help a mother in such a situation,” Dhillon wrote.

Social media hails him as ‘real-life Rancho’
