A veteran staff of Bangladesh Railway today died while trying to save a woman and a child from being crushed under a speedy train in Dhaka’s Kuril area.
Deceased Badal Mia, 58, from Mymensingh and just years before his retirement, was a technical assistant of the engineering department of railway service.
