Mumbai: The Govt Railway Police (GRP) registered separate FIRs against a female passenger

A large crowd gathered at the station, prompting the deployment of the GRP as well as Railway Protection Force (RPF) to bring the situation under control. No arrest has been made. Mumbai: The Govt Railway Police (GRP) registered separate FIRs against a female passenger and a female ticket checker after the two created a ruckus at Kandivli railway station on Friday night.

The incident unfolded around 7.30 pm. The ticket checker then asked her to pay a fine of Rs 510, but the passenger refused.

Police registered a case against the passenger for “obstructing a public servant from doing her duty”, and a separate case was lodged against the ticket checker for manhandling the passenger. The female passenger had boarded the train from Lower Parel station. When she got off at Kandivli station, the female ticket checker asked her to produce her ticket. She showed a season pass that had expired the previous day. She requested to be let off without a fine, which the ticket checker wouldn’t agree to. This sparked a row between the two women. In the meanwhile, a large crowd of people gathered and the police were summoned. The ticket checker apologised to the passenger for her dress.
