A stunning yet terrifying video that captures a scenic railway route in Rajasthan is raking in likes. The video shows a train filled to full capacity, with people standing over the coaches, slowly going through a tall bridge surrounded by green hills.
Other than the train’s route, the video shows two people standing on the sidelines of the train track falling down from the bridge. However, it seems they were unharmed as the person recording the video just behind them remains steady.
This clip was posted online by Instagram user @mallu_yaathrikar. So far it has over 79,000 likes since it was posted on September 12. The video was taken near Goram Ghat, a hill station in Rajasthan.
Despite getting thousands of likes, many criticised the youngsters for standing too close to the railway tracks as it can be dangerous. Echoing this view, an Instagram user wrote, “These people should be arrested and sent to jail. They are promoting a bad message on the social media.”
Goram Ghat is located 142 kilometre from Udaipur. As per the video’s caption, there is no direct train from Udaipur to Goram Ghat. One can reach the hill station by going to Marwar Junction and then taking a train from there to Goram Ghat railway station. People often go to Goram Ghat in monsoon season to experience its beautiful railway route that passes through multiple bridges built on the Aravali mountains.
