At that time, a person named Jamalo Shidi, who was serving a death sentence in jail, told the British officials that if he drives the train on that bridge and successfully takes the train across the bridge, it should be released. All were scared, but the British officials agreed to it. After this, Jamalo showed courage and took the train across the safe bridge.
