The Quick Reaction Team of the 10th Battalion Special Armed Forces, Sagar, noticed the stalled truck while on its way to Damoh for law-and-order duty. Together with local residents, they pushed the vehicle off the track just minutes before a train arrived. A video of the rescue shows the group working together, with a police officer telling the driver, 'You were lucky that we passed from this side.' The driver replied, 'When God sends someone, He sends them like this.' No casualties were reported. The railway crossing gate closed moments after the truck was cleared. ## Coverage - freepressjournal.in Tags: Madhya Pradesh, police, quick response, railway safety, SAGAR, truck accident Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/police-locals-push-truck-off-track-in-sagar-avert-accident/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
