Days after a video of passengers ‘hijacking’ the AC coach of Kumbh Express went viral, another such video is making the rounds on social media. The video, shared on X, shows passengers who don’t have valid tickets occupying the corridors of the first-tier AC coach of Sikkim Mahananda Express. While many raised concerns over the overcrowded AC coach, others shared similar experiences.
“This is the current situation of AC 1st tier in Mahananda 15483. I request management to check this immediately as we are not feeling safe when we are paying extra for it,” wrote X user Swati Raj while sharing a video on the platform. The video is of the first-tier AC coach of Mahananda train, which runs from Alipurduar Junction to Old Delhi. In it, one can see passengers who don’t have valid tickets to travel in that coach cramming the corridors.
