A video from Bengaluru Metro is making waves on social media, showing a differently-abled man begging inside a train. Dressed in a white checkered shirt and skullcap, the man moved from one passenger to another, stirring reactions from netizens and raising questions about metro security.
Though the exact time and location of the incident remain unclear, Bengaluru Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) officials confirmed that it likely occurred on Saturday. Security personnel are examining the footage to trace the man’s entry point. “We are trying to find out where this man boarded. We don’t even know whether he wore the skullcap when he entered the Metro station,” an official told PTI.
The man reportedly boarded the Purple Line at Challaghatta station after scanning a QR code and exited at Kengeri station. Begging in metro trains is prohibited, and officials are investigating how he managed to enter despite security measures.
