Ticketless passengers nearly "Hijack" train's AC coach, railways responds

Digital Desk: A concerning incident that occurred on the internet depicts passengers without tickets almost taking over the second AC cabin of the Kumbh Express (12369), which operates between Howrah Junction and Dehradun. 

The incident was shared on X by Indian Forest Service Officer Akash K. Verma, who wrote, "A friend travelling in train 12369 shared this video of AC 2 coach hijacked by ticketless encroachers who are harassing passengers, occupying their berths, pulling the chain. Passengers are mostly senior citizens. Need immediate sanitation!"

The video depicted a chaotic situation in which travellers without tickets caused havoc and interfered with the enjoyment of those who had valid tickets. Two police officers can also be seen in the video trying to control the scene.

Social media users responded to the video quite quickly. "Railway safety is becoming a joke these days," an individual commented.

Reacting to the user, Railway Seva urged them to share their PNR number and mobile number for immediate action.
