KARACHI: A baby girl was born aboard the Rehman Baba Express (Train No. 47-Up) during its journey from Karachi Cantonment to Tando Adam, following timely intervention by railway police and doctors present on the train.
According to railway police, a female passenger traveling in coach number 08 suddenly fell ill during the journey due to labor complications. Owing to a delay in the train’s movement, the woman delivered the baby while still on board.
Head Constable Shoaib Raza, who was part of the train security squad, immediately called two doctors traveling on the train.
The doctors provided initial medical assistance and later advised that the woman was not fit to continue traveling after the delivery.
In view of the situation, the railway police contacted Rescue 1122 for further assistance. However, due to the unavailability of delivery facilities at nearby hospitals, the rescue team recommended shifting the mother and newborn to Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre.
Railway police officials confirmed that both the mother and the newborn baby girl are in satisfactory condition.
