Mumbai Local Scuffle in Ladies' Compartment Goes Viral
On a commuter train in the city of Mumbai, some women started arguing and pushing each other in a special section of the train that is only for women.
Someone filmed the fight with a phone, and the video became very popular on the internet.
The fight happened on Tuesday evening, at around 8:13 pm, on a train going from Andheri to Virar.
The women had just gotten on the train at Andheri station.
Nobody knows the real reason the fight started.
The police have not said anything about it yet.
People who ride Mumbai's local trains are worried about their safety.
They are especially worried because earlier this year, a 22-year-old man named Mayank was badly hurt on another train.
Mayank asked someone to close the coach door because rain was coming in, and the person hurt him with a sharp weapon.
Both events show that everyone needs to stay safe while riding trains.
A scuffle broke out between women in the ladies' compartment of a Mumbai local train travelling from Andheri towards Virar, with a video of the incident going viral on social media on Tuesday.
The altercation occurred at around 8:13 pm on an Andheri-Virar slow local, reportedly beginning after some women boarded the train at Andheri station's Platform No. 4.
The viral video shows several women engaged in a heated verbal argument, allegedly pushing and physically assaulting each other inside the compartment.
The exact reason behind the scuffle remains unclear, and there has been no official statement from the Government Railway Police (GRP) or Railway Protection Force (RPF) so far, as the incident raised concerns over commuter safety.
In a separate incident earlier this year, 22-year-old commuter Mayank Ramesh Lohar was allegedly murdered inside a moving Mumbai local after an argument over an open coach door during heavy rainfall.
