A video circulating on social media has sparked considerable controversy, capturing two young girls partaking in a Holi celebration while aboard the Delhi metro. In the footage, the girls, dressed in traditional Indian attire, are seen applying colored powder to each other’s faces. However, as they proceed to engage in more intimate gestures such as rubbing their faces together and getting excessively close, the situation escalates rapidly.
Fellow passengers witnessing the incident have expressed strong disapproval and criticism online, condemning the girls’ behavior as unacceptable. Many have called for the Delhi Metro Corporation to take strict action against such conduct, stressing the importance of maintaining decorum and respect in public spaces.
One social media user shared the video on their account, accompanied by the caption writing how immediate action is needed against these behaviours.
Similarly, another user expressed shock, questioning whether it was a “metro station or a scene from a movie,” highlighting the disbelief at the explicit behaviour captured in the footage.
In response to the video, another user proposed a stringent measure, suggesting, “There should be a fine of 1 lakh rupees for every 15 seconds of such behaviour.”
Expressing their discomfort, another user commented on the video, stating, “I feel embarrassed just watching this video! One can only imagine the discomfort of the people in the background witnessing such behaviour.”
While indulging in festivities is undoubtedly enjoyable, it’s vital to contemplate the impact of your actions on others and opt for venues that uphold everyone’s rights and interests. Therefore, it’s widely deemed more appropriate and considerate to celebrate in private residences or other designated areas where guests can revel without causing inconvenience to others.
