This incident took place on 11th May, 2022 at 18:20 hrs. Flying Ranee Ex Andheri to Valsad in First Double Decker GENERAL Coach (Upper Deck) from Engine. That evening my elder Son and Wife (Both having Surat Churchgate Railway Superfast Passes) were seated in the Flying Ranee train (Ex-Andheri) and these group of 3-4 Male Pass Holders who alight at Palghar - forcibly bully passengers upon boarding the coach Ex-Andheri to standup and give them place to sit since they (Bullies') are regular daily traveler's. Both my Elder Son (21 years) and Wife (49 years) avoided any altercation and gave away their seats away and stood right up to Palghar. I boarded the train at Dahanu for Valsad - By then, the Palghar Bullies alighted. How can I safe guard the interest of my Wife, Son and other genuine co-passengers from such bullies'?
Solution: Indian Railways must keep GRP in Civil Clothes as Train Wardens in these long distances train so that such bullies are kept in check by getting them apprehended at the scene of the crime in real time and also given a proper deterrent warning so as to not repeat such an offence in future. This would suffice to deter any further Bullying and also instill a sense of security in the minds of the Passengers.
Looking forward to some meaningful change,
