A commuters' representative alleged Monday that there was a delay by railway officials in attending to a man who fell from a train along the Diva-Kalamboli stretch in neighbouring Thane district.

The Central Railway (CR), however, said there was no delay on officials' part, but the spot was inaccessible by road. The man, identified as Naushad Ali (24), died after falling from the Konkan Kanya Express around 12.50 Sunday. Advocate Adesh Bhagat, a member of Divisional Railway Users Consultative Committee, a panel of commuters' representatives set up by the CR, claimed that Ali's body was attended only in the morning.
