A deputy chief ticket inspector (DCTI) has been suspended for allegedly misbehaving with a woman passenger at a railway station in Bengaluru.
The heated altercation between the ticket checker, identified as V Santhosh, and the passenger at Bengaluru’s KR Puram railway station on March 14 has gone viral on social media. The ticket checker confronted the woman when she got off the Howrah-SMVT Bengaluru Humsafar Express (Train No 22863).
The entire episode was recorded by another passenger who alleged that the woman was being pulled out of the train despite telling the ticket examiner that she was carrying the ticket.
