In a surprising incident, the wife of a Railway Police constable was caught traveling in an air-conditioned (AC) coach despite holding a sleeper-class ticket. The matter came to light during a routine ticket inspection, raising concerns about rule violations by individuals connected to law enforcement.
According to railway authorities, the incident occurred when a ticket examiner (TTE) was conducting a standard check on board. Upon checking the woman’s ticket, it was found that she was supposed to travel in the sleeper class but had instead occupied a seat in the AC coach without proper authorization. When questioned, she reportedly attempted to justify her actions, but the railway staff insisted that she either pay the fare difference or vacate the seat.
Passengers witnessing the scene raised concerns about the misuse of privileges by people associated with law enforcement.
Some argued that such incidents reflect poorly on those who are expected to uphold the law.Railway
Railway authorities took swift action and imposed the necessary fine as per railway rules. Officials reiterated that no one is above the law and that ticket rules apply equally to all passengers, regardless of their affiliations.
This incident has once again highlighted the importance of strict adherence to travel regulations, emphasizing the need for everyone, including those linked to law enforcement, to follow the rules like any other citizen.
