In a shocking turn of events, a 20-year old youth died after he crashed into a pole while performing a train stunt in Mumbai. The incident is believed to have taken place between Diva and Mumbra. The incident was recorded on a mobile phone by one of the victim's friend. The deceased has been identified as Dilshat Khan who was rushed to the hospital in Mumbra but was declared dead on arrival. In the video, the youth can be seen crashing into the pole as he tries to perform the stunt while standing on the footboard. The deceased leaves behind his parents, two brothers, and three sisters.

The recent incident comes despite saftey campaigns by railway authorities urging commuters not to perform stunts or hang out of running trains. Railway authorities recently did a campaign targeting youngsters living in slums and counselling them and their parents about the importance of safety.  Dilshat's father Naushad urged young men to take safety and avoid doing such risky stunts.
