Incidents of eunuchs harassing passengers for money in trains are increasing. In a viral video, passengers protested against the misbehaving eunuch. People are demanding strict action from Railways against this harassment.
Passengers traveling in Indian Railways have to face many challenges every day. But in recent times, incidents of transgenders harassing passengers for money in trains are increasing. A video of an incident related to this has been shared by a user named Sneha on the social media platform ‘X’ (earlier Twitter), after which a big debate has erupted on this issue.
What is the whole matter?
According to the information shared by Sneha (@HinduismTherapy), the people present there together taught a lesson to a eunuch who was misbehaving with the passengers in the train for money. He wrote in his post, “People have thoroughly explained the person who behaves inappropriately with passengers in the name of asking for money.” As soon as this post went viral, many passengers started sharing their bad experiences in the comments.
Passengers’ anger and reactions
Commenting on this post, many people told about the problems they faced. One user wrote, ‘These people come in groups and behave very inappropriately. Sharifs harass people. If their words are not obeyed or money is not given, then they do not spare even the students and youth and make fun of them.
Another user wrote, ‘Railway Ministry (@RailMinIndia) should take immediate action against them. Their arbitrariness in trains and buses has increased beyond limits. Despite having the power to earn through hard work, it is not right to extort money from people in the name of begging.
Debate also broke out on superstition
For years there has been a superstition in the society that ‘eunuchs get cursed or cursed’. But now people are coming out of this fear and becoming aware. In many comments, it was revealed that, “Their hands and legs are safe, they can survive even by working. It is wrong to leave them and force them like this. Leaving aside the superstition related to their blessings, everyone should unite and oppose such oppression.”
Demand for action from Railways
There is a unanimous demand of the passengers that Railway Protection Force (RPF) should take strict steps to stop such illegal extortion and harassment in trains. People say that transgenders who are living their lives with respect should be respected, but it is necessary to teach the lesson of law to those who cause trouble.
