Corruption is rising everywhere in our society today. Bribes have always affected public services. Earlier, only ticket inspectors did corrupt acts on trains. Now, coach attendants also demand cash from passengers without valid tickets.
This trend hurts honest travellers and reduces trust in the system. People see this as a sign of growing misconduct. This viral video shows how low the integrity can fall on board a daily ride and how safety suffers.
Ghar Ke Kalesh posted a viral video on X, highlighting a troubling experience from train number 12562 in the 3AC coach. The caption, shared by a follower (Ref No. 2025060410257), stated that the condition of the coach gate was very bad. The follower further alleged that the coach attendant was collecting amounts ranging from ₹2200 to ₹3000 from ticketless passengers and claimed that the TTE (Travelling Ticket Examiner) would not object or take any action.

In the clip, a coach attendant promises a seat to a young man travelling without a ticket. He says that he will secure a berth for two thousand five hundred rupees. He also claims that the TTE would ignore this transaction. The video caption reads that the coach gate is in very bad condition. Viewers saw clear signs of rust and broken locks.
The attendant tells the man, "Morning mei seat mile to dedenge." When the passenger asks, "TTE kuch nhi bolega?" he replies, "Mera naam boldijiyega, kuch nhi bolega." These acts show the growing misuse of power on premium trains today. This shocked many people.
News of the viral video quickly spread across social media, drawing strong reactions from the public. Many users shared the video and expressed their anger towards Indian Railways. One disappointed user commented, "Indian Railways needs to take strict and immediate action. This kind of misconduct has no place in a system meant to serve the public!"
Another user wrote, "अरे ये लोग धंधा बना रखे हैं," highlighting how such misconduct seems to have become a regular practice. A user praised the page that posted the video, saying, "क्लेश जी आपने उसकी मदद कर के जो आपको फॉलो करता है, ये साबित कर दिया कि आप आपने फॉलोअर्श का भी ध्यान रखते हैं, ये कोच attender तो गया!"
This incident has raised serious concerns about corruption and accountability. Authorities must investigate the matter without delay and take strict action. Passengers have the right to a safe, transparent, and honest travel experience. Such actions, if ignored, can severely damage public trust.
