Video Goes Viral: Woman Without Ticket Refuses to Leave Occupied Seat on Train
A video that has rapidly spread across social media shows a woman who, without a ticket, forcefully took a seat on a train and refused to leave it, despite being confronted by fellow passengers. The incident, which has sparked outrage online, also caught the attention of Indian Railways, which responded to the situation on X (formerly Twitter).
In the video, the woman openly admits that the seat is not hers when confronted by the passenger who had reserved it. However, she stubbornly refuses to vacate the seat, even suggesting they call the Traveling Ticket Examiner (TTE) to resolve the issue. She remains defiant throughout the encounter, dismissing requests to vacate with a brash refusal to move or listen to any complaints.
