Videos featuring busy Indian metro stations usually show crowded platforms, people fighting to board the train, and, in short, total chaos. However, a video is now going viral online, showing something entirely different from this usual scene. It captures people forming queues to board a metro in an orderly fashion. An Instagram user posted the video, adding that it shows Hauz Khas Metro station in Delhi.
“No pushing at Hauz Khas Metro today. Either I’m dreaming or Delhi got a software update,” the individual posted while sharing the video.

The video shows people queued up in front of a metro waiting for its gates to open. Once that happens, the commuters disembark and board the train seamlessly without any chaos, with two jawans standing nearby.
From expressing disbelief to reacting with humour, people posted varied remarks. A few pointed out how authorities must intervene to ensure people board and properly deboard a train.

Teach them civic sense in school and ask them to teach the same to their parents and grandparents. You have no luck correcting the grown-ups. But we can hope the next generation can have better civic sense, although things don't look very positive looking ahead in time.”
