In a significant development regarding the Mumbai commuter death case, the President of India’s office has stepped in to address growing concerns raised by the victim's family. Avadhesh Dubey, a student of IIT Patna, lost his life in a railway accident on April 23, 2024, while travelling on a local train in Mumbai. Avadhesh's death was caused due to door-blocking, train delays and delays in golden-hour medical response.
Rajesh Dubey, the victim's father, has worked relentlessly to advocate for justice, citing serious failures in safety measures and procedural delays in his appeals to various government officials, including the Commissioner of Police, Chief Minister's Office, and the Railway Board. He demanded an FIR be filed against unknown individuals responsible for door-blocking, as well as action against those responsible for delays in medical treatment that resulted in his son's death.
