Travel Influencer Says Man On Delhi-Agra Train Harassed Her: "He Was Constantly Looking At Me..."

A video of a travel influencer documenting her uncomfortable experience during a train journey in India has gone viral on Instagram, sparking controversy. The woman, who was traveling from Delhi to Agra, accused a male co-passenger of taking her pictures and invading her privacy throughout the journey.

Travel Influencer Shares Her Uncomfortable Experience:

Sharing the video on Instagram, she wrote, "Thank you guys for all your support. This was literally my first train journey from Delhi to Agra, and I did not know what to do. I didn't even see a staff besides the man bringing snacks."

"He Was Constantly Looking At Me"

She added, "I got onto the train extremely tired hoping for some rest, but the man sitting next to me was constantly talking to me and taking secret pictures of me. I minded my own business and tried to look from the window, but he was constantly looking at me and even what I was doing on my phone."

Despite asking him to stop, the man continued his behavior. "He didn't stop even after I asked him to, so I made a video of my own. I hoped he would understand as he spoke some English, but I think he was just too much into himself that he didn't even pay attention to what I was saying," she wrote.

In the video, she is heard saying, "I am on a train in India, and this annoying man is taking pictures of me and annoying me all the time in a very rude way. So, I will do the same. Put the camera to his face."

Here's What Netizens Have to Say:

The video has caught a lot of attention and netizens have called him for his wrong behavior. A user wrote, "I am so sorry that you have had this horrible experience in India. Some men in India don't understand boundaries. Hope you have a nice journey ahead. Feel free to reach out if you visit Mumbai." Another commented, "Hey, I am sorry for this experience. Apparently, this is very common behavior towards foreigners. Next time, please ask the TT to change their seat and do not hesitate to make a scene. Most of the crowd will certainly help you."
