According to the media reports, the accident happened as the Lucknow-Barauni Express (No. 15204) arrived from Lucknow Junction. Rao was attempting to open the coupling of the train when it unexpectedly reversed, trapping him between the carriages. After the alarm was raised by onlookers, reports indicate that the train driver exited the train and fled the scene without reversing the engine or taking action to prevent the accident.
Rao was crushed by the moving engine and died on the spot. Bystanders at the scene were seen taking photos while the porter remained trapped between two coaches. Railway authorities have reportedly launched an investigation into the incident.
