A newly married couple died after falling from a moving train on the Vangapalli–Aler railway line in Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district late on Thursday (December 18, 2025).

The deceased were identified as Korada Simhachalam, 25, and his wife Bhavani, 19, natives of Ravupalli village in Garugubilli mandal of Parvathipuram Manyam district in Andhra Pradesh. The couple got married about two months ago.

According to the railway police, the couple had boarded the Machilipatnam Express at Secunderabad on Thursday night and were travelling to Vijayawada to visit relatives. After the train crossed Vangapalli railway station in Yadagirigutta mandal, the two were standing near the door of the coach when they slipped and fell from the moving train.

The incident came to light on Friday morning when railway trackmen found the bodies along the tracks and alerted the railway police. The bodies were later shifted to a hospital for postmortem examination.

Police said Simhachalam was employed with a chemical company in Hyderabad and was residing in the Gandhinagar area of Jagadgirigutta along with his wife.

A case has been registered by the railway police, and further investigation is underway.
