An Accident Scene

An Accident Scene

The terrible moment of my life when I saw horrible accident scene in front of my eyes. The story is based on a true story and it dates back to the past days when I was a student of class VII. The memories of that time are always remembered throughout the life and the accident scene which I am going to discuss is something I can never forget in my life. It has done a great impact on my life.

One day when we had recess in our school we would go to the nearby Railway platform and would play at the flat ground of the platform. Most often all of present there and pushed each other and would make fun that way. All of us belonged to noble families and we all were well civilized and also naughty at that time. It is obvious that at child stage everyone is naughty and tries to enjoy all the happiness and fun of life by making fun of each other, and by playing outdoor games. It has been said by a great philosopher “Fred Rogers” that “Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood”.

That was really a very sinuous day or moment which had come into my life. We were busy in making fun with each other on the platform and everyone was in jolly mood. One of our classmates pushed the other boy out of the fun and suddenly his leg slipped and he went down the platform and fell on the railway track and then all of a sudden a shunting train moved there and my class mate was crushed and died on the spot. We become frightened and returned hurried to the principal’s office for the call of help and narrated him the whole story and the fact that had happened, in due course we all were shivering out of the fear. The principal listened everything patiently and asked the peon to bell and advised us to go to our classes.

The news of this incident spread all over the area within no time and so many rumors
