केवल महिला ही नहीं कोई भी यात्री @IRCTCofficial में सुरक्षित नहीं है। बड़ी हैरानी की बात है, रात को 1 बजे ट्रेन में कुछ बदमाश खुलेआम नशे का सेवन कर, गंदी गालियों से यात्रियों को परेशान कर रहे है, मैंने complain करने की कोशिश करी तो पाया की पूरी ट्रेन में एक भी आरपीएफ़ / जेआरपीएफ… pic.twitter.com/IigOfczYiB

"Not only women, no passenger is safe on @IRCTCofficial. It is very surprising; at 1 o'clock in the night, some miscreants are openly harassing the passengers by consuming drugs and abusing them on the train. When I tried to complain, I found that there is not even a single RPF/JRPF deployed on the entire train. When I complained through the TT, the police arrived after 1 hour. Meanwhile, the miscreants were threatening me. With the help of helpful passengers, I stood firm throughout the matter until the police arrived. But if any accident had occurred during this 1 hour, who would have been responsible for it?" Bishnoi wrote on X in Hindi.

This incident highlights the need for better and faster security on trains to deal with and prevent such situations. Bishnoi sharing her experience publicly brings attention to the challenges passengers face and emphasises the importance of authorities taking active steps to ensure people's safety while travelling by train. Bishnoi's video has sparked discussions about the Passengers safety.
