Passenger habits in India

[48111]

When two students were caught at Motihari travelling first class with third class tickets there was a riot and 12 people were injured.
Pulling the alarm chain or chord,ticketless travel and assaulting railway staff have become national sports in India.
Alarm chains or chords are pulled on average 118 times a day, during the past 3 months on the Central railway alone £130,000 in fines has been exacted from passengers.
All over India many Peasants ride on trains as they would bullock carts and they are shocked at the idea that they should pay.Pulling the chain or chord has become such a scourge that the railway authorities have been thinking of removing them from all but "upper - class carriages.
