The Shramik trains bringing hundreds of migrant workers to Uttar Pradesh, on Saturday, brought some good news, some hope too. Two women migrant workers gave birth while travelling on separate trains on Saturday. In the first incident, as soon as the Bihar-bound special train reached Agra Fort station on Saturday, a doctor along with a team of railway staff helped a migrant worker give birth to a baby girl inside a train coach.

The woman, identified as Mamta Yadav of Manoharpur village in Chapra district in Bihar, was on Jamnagar-Muzaffarpur Shramik express when the passengers informed the railway staff that she had started having labour pains. "The coach in which the woman was travelling was emptied and a team of doctors helped in the delivery. Both, the baby girl and the woman, were healthy and safe. They were allowed to move on with the train," said S.K. Srivastav, divisional commercial manager of Agra division.
