The Story in Brief
A passenger on the New Delhi-Howrah Rajdhani Express claims a cockroach entered his ear as he slept in a second AC coach. Surya Sen said the onboard doctor at Kanpur dismissed it and prescribed ear drops. Later, an ENT specialist in Howrah removed the insect via endoscopy. Sen has demanded that Indian Railways investigate the hygiene lapse and reimburse his medical expenses. He plans to file a formal complaint with supporting documents. Social media users have backed his call, with some suggesting he approach the consumer forum.
The Indian Opinion
Another day, another cockroach story on Indian Railways. The outrage is predictable, but the real question is why a premier train like Rajdhani has such hygiene issues. Social media erupts in anger, demanding accountability, but who will ensure the sweeping and disinfecting actually happen before each departure? The rail minister's next inspection report will show if action follows noise.
