One comment simply read, "What kind of an example is this for others?" while another noted, "I can’t believe people still drink tea in trains, knowing this could happen." Some users even pointed out the need for better training for those handling food and beverages in public transportation. "This should be a wake-up call for the railway authorities," another user added.

Despite the outrage, some users seemed to take the incident lightly, with one writing, "Guess that’s how they make it ‘extra strong’!" However, the majority of the comments reflect a growing frustration over the lack of hygiene in public transport.
