Any theft attempt should be reported to railway staff or the Government Railway Police (GRP) and Railway Protection Force (RPF). The incident reportedly took place at Shivnarayanpur railway station in Bhagalpur district, Bihar. However, passengers inside the coach reacted quickly and grabbed his hands before he could get away. Instead of letting go as the train pulled away, they continued holding him, leaving him hanging outside the moving train. Passengers are advised to avoid confronting suspected thieves in ways that could endanger themselves or others. Passengers can also use the RailMadad platform to report railway-related complaints and seek assistance.
