Bengaluru Metro  

The Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) has suspended a bus conductor from duty after a shocking video showing a woman passenger being assaulted sparked outrage across social media platforms. An argument happened beween the conductor, identified as Honnappa Nagappa Agasar, and a 24-year-old woman passenger travelling from Bilekalli to Shivajinagar on a BMTC bus operating the Bannerghatta National Park to Shivajinagar route.
 

The metro is a busy transport system where many people travel daily, ensuring safety with cameras and staff keeping a watchful eye. Despite the crowds, the metro stays secure with cameras and observant employees monitoring activities. However, contrary to this, a distressing incident has come to light in Bengaluru involving a on duty security staff member stationed at a metro station who engaged in inappropriate behaviour by touching his private parts and masturbating in full view of passengers, particularly a female traveller.
