A video showing passengers apparently holding a mahila sangeet-style celebration inside a moving train has sparked a debate on social media. Users are divided over whether the group was simply enjoying the journey or crossing the line of acceptable behaviour in a shared public space.
Others, however, argued that a train coach is a shared space and that passengers should be mindful of people who may want to travel in peace. They felt that loud singing and cheering could inconvenience fellow travellers, especially on a long journey. One user wrote, “This kind of unnecessary behaviour does not belong in public spaces. Trains, flights, restaurants and other shared places are meant to be comfortable for everyone, not a private venue for someone’s personal celebration. If you want a private Mahila Sangeet style event with loud music and performances, book a private space or an entire coach instead of disturbing everyone around you.”
