Railway Protection Force (RPF) Inspector Mukesh Anandkar noticed the two girls in the footage captured by the CCTV cameras installed at the station, following which they were brought to the police station.
The girls identified as Bhavika Gadge (12) and Khushi Kalpekar (10), told the police that they hailed from Akot in Akola district in Maharashtra, he said.
"The girls told us that an unidentified person had put a handkerchief on their noses at Akot following which they fell unconscious. When they regained consciousness, they found themselves at Indore railway station," Anandkar said.
Anandkar said the two girls were handed over to their family members after their medical examination.
Further investigation into the case is on.
