Here is another interesting read about Pune Metro:

Almost a week ago, a Pune Metro Guard, Vikas Bangar, displayed an exemplary presence of mind that saved the life of a 3-year-old boy –

On January 19 at 14:22 hrs, a 3-year-old boy fell on the tracks from the Civil Court Elevated Station, Platform 2. To save the child, the child’s mother also fell in an attempt to rescue her child. 

The on-duty guard observed the incident and immediately operated the emergency train stop button while the train was just 30 meters away from the station. After operating the button, the train on both tracks stopped before the Civil Court Elevated Station.
