From 1997 to 2000, I worked in LTMGH, Sion - it handled the highest volume of trauma cases in Asia. A large chunk of the injured were railway accident victims. Fall from train, hit by pillars while hanging from train, run over by train after falling at platform. #ChalaNigha
Day after day, the sickening injuries poured in. Legs cut off, heads shattered. Reason? Overcrowded trains. How we wished for closing doors on the trains. Over a dozen lives could be saved by this alone. But how can doors be closed, with hundreds hanging out? #ChalaNigha
Its been nineteen years. Nothing has changed. Dozens still pour in every day. A young girl with both legs chopped off. A young guy with his head caved in, fighting for life. A father, brought dead on arrival. How long? How long can this continue? #ChalaNigha
