"The horror on train no. 22949 Delhi Saria Rohilla train first ac continues. Outside my cabin right now when I woke up and went to use the washroom. I couldn't even click the others on the right as I couldn't walk past these women. I asked the attendant, and he said this is how it is. No one does anything @RailMinIndia. PNR NO: 8215769471, Coach no HA1, A1 Cabin. This is an organised ticketless travelling right outside my cabin!" wrote Mehra in his post.

Here's how people reacted:

An individual wrote, "The government is focusing only on Vande Bharat, that's why these old train passengers are facing such issues."

A second added, "Right now, platforms are like open fields where anyone can graze. Technology & multiple barricades are needed right from the platform entrance to the train compartments. For this, at least 30-min prior entry rule is necessary."

"Kushal, please use the Railmadad mobile app. You can upload screenshots there. I have personally used it, and it is way faster in terms of providing resolutions," posted a third.

A fourth shared, "What is the use of paying so much for a first-class ticket if we get to face this kind of arrogance and freeloading?"

"Not being divisive, but such ticketless/ unauthorised travellers are more on trains running towards Delhi, UP, Bihar, and maybe other neighbouring states. I have noticed them on trains between Kazipet and Secunderabad, especially in the mornings," commented a fourth.
