Many questioned authorities noting that the man seems to be under the alcohol influence, asking “Why was he even allowed to enter the station in the first place?”
An X user, Shubam pointed out that people are seriously lacking civic sense, and some openly urinates on platforms, used metro tickets are thrown on the floor instead of dustbins, and people eat at stations and leave the waste. “Overall, there’s a worrying lack of basic civic responsibility in the nation’s capital,” the user wrote on X.
Civic sense is seriously lacking among many people in Delhi.
-> In metro premises, some openly urinate or even let children do the same.
-> Used metro tickets are thrown on the floor instead of dustbins.
-> People eat at stations and leave the waste right there.
