It is true that people have been harassed by those criminals everyday. There will not be any solution for this problem until common public change their mindset. We can observe that most of the people prefer to through some money and keep quiet, saying that we should we mess with those people. Sometimes when they harass some one, others will be laughing at that. Common public do not have unity which is the strength of those b***ards. Politicians seems to be worried of losing their support if they make any move. I wish to know whether passenger safety is the responsibility of railways or not. Lot of NGOs are there to protect those criminals who abuse, sexually harass innocent persons. Can we take this issue to the Ministry of Railways? Use Pepper Sprays? or shove them from running trains?

Its 'Throw some Money'. sorry for the typo
Yeah, this is happening very frequently, I do see people are afraid when ever hijras gang enter into train bogi. I don't understand the responsibility of Railway Police Protection. I do see hijras are manhandling innocent passenger in General bogis. Does this mean general bogi passengers are least bothered? Railway ministry must take necessary action against it.

This type of harrassment at the hand of transgender is a common scene even at Kolkata local train. 7-8 months back, while traveling in local train from khardah to Barrackpore, two hijras demanded money from me and threatened if I don't give they willl not allow me to depart from the train at Barrackpore.In order to avoid the situation I thought of giving few bucks but by force they took around 3k .At that time I was not sure if complaint in railway police would had helped me but suddenly today I came across this forum and thought of sharing my experience. Currently I am not working and hardly travel by local train, if required I prefer traveling by others transport just to avoid such situations. Earlier when I was working at Kolkata, I had to travel from Barrackpore daily on train and most of the day I had to pay them as I found others passenger paying them.
