TTEs thrash man travelling sans ticket, booked
Roorkee: 20.03.2021
Two travelling ticket examiners (TTE) onboard Rishikesh-Barmer Express (04887) allegedly thrashed a passenger for travelling “without ticket” from Haridwar to Jaipur on Wednesday.
According to the Railway Protection Force (RPF) officials, the TTEs also caused a delay of around 50 minutes after creating a ruckus at the Roorkee railway station. Soon after the episode, the RPF and the GRP (Government Railway Police) registered separate cases against the two TTEs and the passenger, a resident of Jaipur. According to sources, the passenger was heading to his hometown Jaipur from Haridwar in coach S-4 of Rishikesh-Barmer Express when he was asked by TTE Karandip Singh to show his ticket. To this, he told the official that his trip was unplanned and that he didn’t get the time to book a ticket. This ensued a brawl between the two. Subsequently, TTE Singh was joined by an unidentified colleague and both of them allegedly thrashed the passenger. TNN
