the busy Rajiv Chowk metro station.

The injured has been identified as Prashant Pathak, a resident of Noida Sector 12. He was last seen waiting for a train at platform number 3 (towards Noida/Vaishali) at Rajiv Chowk around 5.45 pm, said a senior police official, adding that Pathak suddenly jumped on the tracks, in front of an approaching train.
