The incident occurred on Thursday morning, it said, adding that the deceased K R Savla, worked as a salesman in the Dadar cloth market, reported PTI.
He was a resident of Dombivli and took the 9.25 am local to go to his workplace on Thursday as he did regularly. He was standing near the train compartment's door due to the rush. But he lost his grip and fell down on the tracks, a <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/four-of-10-deceased-identified-so-far-in-dombivli-factory-blast-23352967" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">GRP official</a> said, reported PTI.
After being alerted, a GRP team went to the spot and rushed him to a hospital, where he was declared brought dead, he said, adding that a case of accidental death was registered.
An eyewitness said that as the victim was falling down, other passengers tried in vain to save him.
In another case, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/thane-court-sentences-man-to-10-year-rigorous-imprisonment-for-raping-minor-23352832" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">unidentified persons</a> have been booked after a 2-year-old girl was found abandoned inside an express train, a Kalyan railway police station official said on Friday, reported PTI.
The child was spotted by passengers of Shirdi Sainagar Express on Wednesday and their search for her parents on board drew a blank after which they called police, he said.
"She was first taken to a hospital for a check up and then lodged in a shelter home," he said, reported PTI.
A case was registered under section 317 (abandoning child under 12 years of age) of the Indian Penal Code and a hunt was on to trace and nab the accused, the official added.
