WEBDESK: A disturbing case of political extremism and mob violence has once again surfaced from India, where a passenger was mercilessly assaulted on the Vande Bharat Express after refusing to give up his seat to a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) legislator.
The incident, captured on video and now circulating widely on social media, has reignited concerns about the deepening culture of political thuggery and intolerance under India’s ruling party.
Reserved seat? not if BJP MLA wants it
In the shocking footage, the passenger is seen being slapped, punched, and dragged through the train carriage while fellow travellers watch in fear. Not a single member of the Railway Protection Force or staff intervened to protect him.
You may have a ticket and a seat number, but in India today, it’s political muscle that decides who sits where. In Modi’s India, a reserved seat isn’t a guarantee of your safety.
Nitizens Slam Zero Action Against BJP MLA After Train Attack
The incident has triggered a wave of shame and anger across India, with many nitizens expressing outrage over the brutal assault and the shocking indifference of both the authorities and fellow passengers.
Social media users slammed the complete absence of action against the BJP MLA and his men, calling it yet another example of how political power shields criminals in Modi’s India.
