'Baaikovar Ka Jatoy?': Wrestling, Punching, Slaps—Fight Breaks Out Between Men In Virar-Dahanu Mumbai Local Train | VIDEO

Mumbai: A disturbing incident of physical altercation between two men was reported on the Virar-Dahanu local train on Monday, July 28. The fight broke out when the two men got into a scuffle while boarding the train, which later escalated into a wrestling-like situation.

According to eyewitnesses, the argument began when the men pushed and shoved each other while trying to board the moving train between Vaitarna and Safale stations. The situation quickly got out of hand, with both men engaging in a physical fight. When another passenger attempted to intervene and stop the fight, he surprisingly started slapping and hitting both the men. This unexpected twist added fuel to the fire, creating more chaos in the train compartment. The other man is observed hitting another, claiming he verbally mistreated him by insulting his wife, repeatatively saying, "Baaikovar ka jatoy" in Marathi meaning 'why are you dragging my wife?'.

The incident was captured on video by fellow passengers, and the footage has gone viral on social media platforms. The video shows the two men pushing and hitting each other, while other passengers try to intervene and stop the fight. The lack of security personnel in the train compartment allowed the situation to escalate.

As of now, there has been no official response from the railway authorities regarding the incident. This lack of response has raised concerns about the safety and security of passengers in local trains.

The incident highlights the need for improved crowd management and stricter enforcement of discipline in local trains, especially during peak hours. With overcrowding being a major issue in Mumbai's local trains, such incidents can have serious consequences.

In a similar incident earlier this year, a violent brawl broke out among women in the ladies' compartment of a local train travelling from Dombivli to CSMT. The altercation began over a seating dispute and quickly escalated into a physical fight.

The viral video of the fight has sparked outrage and concern among netizens, highlighting the need for increased security measures in local trains. The railway authorities must take necessary steps to prevent such incidents in the future and ensure the safety of passengers.
