'Gate Todna To Banta Hai': Watch This Woman Justify Vandalism Of Trains By Maha Kumbh Pilgrims. VIRAL VIDEO
Pilgrims who failed to board trains to Prayagraj for Maha Kumbh are venting their anger by vandalizing trains. Videos of them breaking windows and entry gates are circulating on social media.
Several videos of Maha Kumbh pilgrims failing to catch a train to Prayagraj venting out their anger on trains are going viral on social media. In the videos, the pilgrims can be seen breaking the panes of windows and entry gates of trains. Reason? Passengers inside locked the gates to prevent further crowding of the already overcrowded trains.
One such video has come to the fore where a woman is justifying vandalism. This time a woman is seen asking some youths to break the windows of a Northeast Frontier Railway sector train. The video shot by Local 18 shows a reporter asking the people outside why they were hitting the glass, to which they reply: "What can we do? They have locked the gates from inside... We want to go to Prayagraj."

The woman shouts from the back of the crowd, "Tak se maro, toot jayega [Hit the gate hard, it will break]." When questioned, why she was supporting such vandalism and pointed out that the train was already overcrowded, she said: "Everyone is suffering. Why can't they? Why would they close the gates? Have they got some special order from the government?"

Another man says, "Every person here has come with high hopes of going to Praygraj. They should not lock the doors.
When the Local 18 reporter points out that there is no space to enter, one of the youths banging on the door says: "Even if that is the case, they should not close the gates." The woman chimes in: "Everyone can enter. Why did they close the gate? Todna to banta hai [It is justifiable to smash the gate]."
When asked that if it was ok to vandalise a train just because the gates were locked due to overcrowding, she says: "They [passengers inside] would be responsible for the loss because they closed the gates. Not us."
Several videos of pilgrims wanting to visit Prayagraj for the Maha Kumbh vandalising the trains are going viral. These people allegedly did not have tickets.;

News of such incidents has been pouring in from Bihar, UP, Madhya Pradesh, Bengal, among others. What's even more disturbing is that the violent passengers are breaking the windows of the reserved coaches where passengers are sitting and there are no security personnel to check such incidents.
