Woman caught without ticket tears own clothes, falsely blames TTE
A ticketless passenger on the Danapur-Secunderabad Express tore her own clothes and accused the ticket examiner of misbehaviour, but video evidence exposed her
A video of a commotion during ticket checking on a train from Danapur to Prayagraj has gone viral on social media. The incident took place on the Danapur-Secunderabad Express (12792), where a young woman travelling in an AC 2-tier coach did not have a ticket.
During routine checking, the TTE (Travelling Ticket Examiner) asked the woman for her ticket, but she did not have one and refused to show any ticket. The TTE explained that, as per rules, she would have to pay a fine to get a ticket made. On hearing this, the woman became angry and began arguing loudly with him.
The argument escalated to the point where the woman began threatening the TTE. She said he did not know her brother, who she claimed was a more senior TTE. She gave her name as Radhika Tiwari and said her brother's name was Munna Tiwari, claiming he worked in the railways and that the TTE would face serious consequences. The TTE tried hard to calm her down, but she refused to listen.
What happened next was the most shocking part. As the dispute grew, the woman suddenly began tearing her own clothes and accused the TTE of misbehaving with her and attempting to molest her. She also threatened to call the number 112 to summon the police. She apparently believed that making such false allegations would scare the TTE into letting her go.
However, her plan backfired. Another passenger present there, along with the TTE, recorded the entire incident on their mobile phones. The video clearly showed the woman tearing her own clothes, which exposed the false allegations made against the TTE and became the key evidence in his favour.
When the train reached Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyaya (PDDU) Junction, the TTE immediately called the Railway Protection Force (RPF). RPF personnel arrived and made the woman get off the train.
Even after being taken off the train, the woman continued the commotion, filming the police and the TTE while shouting. RPF Inspector Anita Kumari later said the woman was fined 1000 rupees for creating a disturbance on the train.
The video of the incident is now going viral on social media, with many people expressing anger over it. Most people said it was wrong to travel without a ticket and then make false allegations by throwing one's weight around. They noted that because the TTE recorded the video in time, his job could otherwise have been at risk.
