According to reports, an 8-10-year-old boy, who lives near the railway station in Lucknow, got into the wheel section of a goods train while playing. The goods train then started, which prevented the boy from getting down. He thus got stuck in the wheels of the goods train and reached Hardoi, 100 km from Lucknow. The vehicle was stopped in Hardoi after the train received information that the boy was stuck in the wheel.

The Hardwar railway protection force was later informed about the incident. The boy was rescued by the Railway Protection Force after the goods train stopped at Hardoi railway station. The boy was then brought to Hardoi outpost.  During interrogation, the boy identified himself as Ajay Puran, a resident of Balaji Temple, Lucknow. The child's name and address have been handed over to the child care centre. Meanwhile, a picture of the boy being pulled out of the wheels is going viral on social media.
