Outrage Erupts After Viral Video Shows RPF Constable Pushing Youth Near Moving Train in Delhi”

A disturbing video from Delhi’s Sarai Rohilla railway station has gone viral, sparking widespread outrage and raising serious questions about the conduct of railway police. The footage shows an RPF (Railway Protection Force) constable aggressively pushing a young man near a moving train, while the youth desperately tries to hold onto the train’s handle and his luggage.

The incident occurred on August 18 and quickly ignited a firestorm on social media. Citizens condemned the police officer’s behavior, demanding strict action and even dismissal from service. Many users pointed out that such a reckless act could have easily resulted in a fatality and called for the constable to be removed from duty immediately.

One user expressed concern over the public release of the passenger’s personal information, saying it endangered the complainant’s life. Others questioned whether such an officer, who could attempt to throw someone off a train, could be trusted with public safety. Comments poured in, demanding not just suspension but termination and even criminal charges for such inhumane conduct.

In response to the uproar, the railway authorities issued an official statement clarifying the situation. They claimed the train was stationary at the time of the incident and that the youth had pulled the alarm chain, prompting police intervention. According to the railway, the altercation occurred because the individual refused to cooperate, did not provide his name or contact details, and resisted being escorted off the train. The authorities added that the constable involved has been taken off active duty and placed on reserve line pending an investigation supervised by senior officers.

Despite these assurances, public anger remains high. Many believe that simply transferring the officer is not a sufficient punishment and have demanded more severe disciplinary action, including dismissal and legal proceedings. Some users highlighted the double standards in the system, asking what would happen if a passenger behaved similarly towards an RPF staff member.

The incident has reignited debates about police accountability and passenger safety on Indian Railways. While pulling the alarm chain is a punishable offense, many argue that nothing justifies the violent and dangerous behavior displayed by the constable. The public is calling for swift and transparent justice to restore faith in the railway police.
