Chennai: Two women and a man suffered injuries after they fell off a moving suburban train heading to Chennai Beach station, at Pallavaram station, today.
The injured, Sumanlatha (59), Baplirani (57) and Nanda Kishore (59) belonged to a team of 71 tourists from north India who had come to Pallavaram after their trip to Kanyakumari.
Sumanlatha from New Delhi suffered injuries on her shoulder while Nanda Kishore was injured in the hip and Baplirani, the head. They are both from Ludhiana.
Southern Railway officials said the team had come to Tambaram this morning by Kanyakumari Express. As they had booked a lodge in Pallavaram, they boarded a suburban train heading to Beach at the station. As there was a huge crowd at Pallavaram station, the team got down in a hurry, leading to the three slipping and falling, around 9.15 am.
The injured were rushed to Chrompet government hospital via 108 ambulance where they are being treated now.
Services on the line were stopped from 15-20 minutes, according to sources.
