In a heartwarming incident in the Ramgarh forest division of Jharkhand, an elephant gave birth on a railway track, causing a train to halt for two hours. Central Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav shared a video of the event on the social media platform X, showcasing a beautiful example of harmony between humans and animals. The video shows the elephant and her calf later peacefully moving away from the track. The minister praised the sensitivity of the railway officials, emphasizing that their actions not only ensured the safety of the calf but also set a positive example. A freight train was scheduled to pass during the birth, but it was held back to avoid disturbing the elephant. The video shared by the minister shows the train’s locomotive pilot stopping the train well before reaching the elephant. The video has garnered praise, with many applauding the driver’s quick thinking and compassion in ensuring the safety of the mother and her newborn.
