Police authorities in Uttar Pradesh have initiated legal action against three individuals following the circulation of a highly objectionable video on social media. The footage, which shows two students engaged in inappropriate behavior, was recorded inside a compartment of the Namo Bharat Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) train.
Ghaziabad Police Takes Swift Action
The incident came to light after the video began spreading across various social media platforms. Acting promptly on the information, the Ghaziabad Police registered a First Information Report (FIR) at the Sahibabad police station. The case has been filed under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) pertaining to obscene acts and content.
According to the police report, the incident is believed to have occurred on a moving Namo Bharat train. The video allegedly features two students whose identities are currently being verified. The individuals who recorded and initially shared the video are the primary accused named in the FIR.
Investigation Underway to Identify All Involved
Law enforcement agencies are actively investigating the matter to uncover all details. Senior police officials have confirmed that efforts are on to identify and locate the three accused persons named in the complaint. Furthermore, the police are also working to identify the two students seen in the video to record their statements as part of the probe.
The Namo Bharat RRTS is a flagship mass rapid transit system connecting Delhi with key cities in the National Capital Region (NCR), such as Ghaziabad and Meerut. This incident has raised concerns about passenger safety and misconduct on the modern transit system.
Public Outcry and Official Response
The viral nature of the video triggered significant public outrage, with many citizens demanding strict action against those responsible for creating and disseminating the obscene content. The police have assured the public that the investigation is being treated with seriousness.
The authorities have emphasized that such acts violate public decency and the law. They have also warned against sharing the video further, as it could lead to additional legal consequences for those circulating it. The focus of the probe is not only on the act itself but also on the violation of privacy and the intent to publicly shame the individuals involved.
This case highlights the ongoing challenges law enforcement faces with content shared on digital platforms. The Ghaziabad police's swift registration of the FIR demonstrates a proactive approach to addressing cyber-related offenses and maintaining order on public transport infrastructure.
