Videos shot inside Delhi Metro coaches have been raging for a while — from people dancing to unruly behaviour of passengers. And this is despite the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) issuing advisories time and again against making videos or reels inside metro coaches.
Now, another video of passengers showcasing their careless behaviour is going viral. Twitter user Aman shared the video that showed two men standing adjacent to the coach’s gate. Just as the gate begins to close, they both stick out their feet so that the automated door opens again. They did it a few times as other men inside the coach are seen laughing at their actions.
However, one is heard saying that they should stop doing this. The video was recorded at the Karol Bagh metro station. “Metro gets late because of such people,” the tweet in Hindi read. Aman also tagged DMRC, who responded.
Ase logo ki wajhse metro (@OfficialDMRC) late hoti hai🤦 pic.twitter.com/l7nopyU6UK

The DMRC asked the man to provide the coach number which is written inside and outside the train.
नमस्कार। कृपया कोच नंबर प्रदान करें। ट्रेन के अंदर और बाहर कोच नंबर लिखा होता है। कृपया नीचे दी गई तस्वीरों को देखें। pic.twitter.com/kDGPeibbNP

The user replied to the DMRC that he didn’t shoot the video but saw it on Instagram. “I don’t know the coach number because i saw this video on instagram reels but it is blue line as you can see and you can see their faces also i am giving all details below please look into this matter asap possible,” he wrote. The clip was uploaded on Instagram by a man named Ansh (@gupta_ansh172) on March 29.

“Hi. Obstructing the door of a Metro train is a punishable offence. Passengers may kindly contact DMRC Helpline on 155370 if they notice such behaviour,” the DMRC said in another tweet. “Educated idiots… but the real problem is the people around watching peacefully,” a user wrote.
