In a startling incident at the Indiranagar Metro Station in Bengaluru, a woman risked her life by jumping onto the Metro track with a power of 750 KV electricity to retrieve her dropped mobile phone. The incident, which occurred during the evening peak hour at 6:45 p.m., led to security personnel promptly alerting the control room, resulting in the disconnection of electricity and preventing a potential tragedy.
