After Gurtej Singh noticed that the man was in danger, he jumped onto the tracks to lift him out of dangers way.

“Underground train stations can often be accident zones, more so for people who are visually challenged. A few hours ago, in Boston, one such man accidentally fell onto the Red Line tracks. Hearing his screams, commuters rushed to his help to save him before anything worse could happen. One of the first persons to jump in to his help was a Sikh man named Gurteg Singh” notes scoopwhoop.com.

“I heard a scream and when I looked up I saw someone tumbling onto the tracks. He’s blind so there’s no way he could see his footing or step up to try to pull himself”, said Gurtej Singh.

“In the moment fight flight sort of kicked in so I jumped in to try push him up, try to give him leverage and help the people on the platform pull him up,” Daily Sikh Updates quote Gurtej Singh.

I didn’t think twice to help as my religion teaches me to do help others, said Gurtej Singh.

The man was taken to the hospital and released after evaluation.
