"I Am Not Railway Minister": Woman's Complaint On Packed Train Meets Blunt Reply
NDTV
The video has sparked outrage online, with many criticising the TTE's response as dismissive and unhelpful.
A video circulating online has captured the frustrations of many train passengers in India. The clip shows a woman on the 22969 OKHA BSBS Super Fast Express (Okha to Banaras) train expressing her concerns about overcrowding to a Travelling Ticket Examiner (TTE). TC : "SORRY I am not a minister"🔥🔥- 22969 train filled with passengers like animals, no way even to urinate, passengers are left stranded at the stations."Helpless Girl: Sir please make me sit in the train,the coach is full, how will a girl go among the boys?#railways 🤦 pic.twitter.com/h3FqkD4dw6
In the video, the woman expresses her concern for safety and the lack of personal space due to the excessive number of passengers. She questions the TTE about how women can feel secure in such conditions.
The TTE's response, however, has drawn criticism. He folds his hands and simply states that he is not in a position to address the issue, as he cannot create additional trains.
