    Rest in peace my dear angel. Very disturbing and depressing The little angel has really broken my heart. Just wondering why mothers cant be more responsible and a bit more attentive. May Almighty give the strenth to the family to bear the loss.

    RIP little angel paying for other angel to recover soon.

    This is negiligence only on part of adults and not kids because they are unable to judge danger. Some adultskeep on producing children even if they cannot look after and put them at mercy of Almighty. Once when I got off from BEST bust I saw small infant on footpath near highway getting down the footpath to go on busy road I lifter the infant after sometime so called mother came she was a beggar woman she said God will take care. Absurd answer. I told her it is also your responsibility . She said the other kids were there to take care then she showed me three -four other kids all betweem 3 years to 10 years. These adults are a nuisance not only to kids but also a burden on economy.

    Very sad and tragic.Two small children leaving alone at home and mother was out.Naturally children at this age dont understand parents problems and their warnings.It is parents have to take care .Either take childdren with you or have a person to lookafter.Since railtrack so near the house ,children want to see the train or want their mother come home.Best is railways should have some fence like near the houses are.or even a gate there.May the angelboy rest in peace.the otherone get well soon.heartfelt sympathy to the family.

    It is disheartening to know that a three-year-boy was killed after being hit by a train and his brother critically injured. RIP young boy and wish a speedy recovery of his brother. The family was living close to the railway tracks and his parents should have warned of the trains running through and forth. This is a lesson for other kids and adults too.

    Haneef, she didn't do willingly right? If she is put into jail, angel Bilal will return? Will Ismail get healed?? She had to look after the other child too. These children too don't listen when they are out.

    Haneef,
    Your comments treats a mother to a servant, Don't jump into punish mother, I don't think that this mother is irresponsible , she's single handily caring children whose husband away from the family, She might be Beedi worker or might have gone out for shop/market to prepare food for the family , By the way everything is not available at home .
