Delhi Metro: A Hub of Unusual Incidents
The Delhi Metro is known for being one of the most efficient and widely used public transport systems in the city. However, in recent times, it has made headlines for rather unusual reasons—ranging from public disputes and bizarre fashion choices to viral dance videos and heated altercations. Numerous such incidents have been recorded and shared online, leaving viewers both amused and concerned.
In the latest instance, a video has surfaced showing two women locked in a heated fight over a seating dispute.
Verbal Argument Turns Physical
The undated footage, shared on Instagram, captures the moment when one of the women sarcastically tells the other, "Meri god mein baith jaa" (Sit on my lap). Taking the remark literally, the second woman attempts to sit on her lap, further aggravating the situation and leading to a full-blown physical altercation.

While the exact date of the incident remains unknown, the video has garnered significant attention online, amassing over 360,000 views and more than 5,400 likes. The shocking incident has sparked widespread discussions, with social media users expressing their opinions on the growing aggression among metro commuters.
Mixed Reactions on Social Media
Several users took to the comments section to share their thoughts on the incident, with some sympathizing with the women involved while others criticized the lack of decorum in public spaces.
One user wrote, "I understand her frustration. Many women try to squeeze into seats without even asking, which can be uncomfortable for others."
Another user commented, "This is concerning. Physical violence should never be the way to resolve disputes."
A third person observed, "People seem so irritable these days that even minor inconveniences trigger extreme reactions."
Another user strongly criticized the behavior, stating, "This reflects a complete lack of civic sense. Wearing Western clothes won’t change someone’s manners or attitude."
More Instances of Public Altercations in Delhi Metro
This is not the first time a video of a fight inside the Delhi Metro has gone viral. Last year, footage emerged of a brawl at a token counter, where multiple individuals were seen slapping, pushing, and punching each other over an argument. A bystander who attempted to intervene was also dragged into the scuffle and slapped from behind.
Calls for More Public Courtesy
One user summed up the issue by saying, "Sometimes, people feel entitled to a seat, but everyone is equally tired after a long day. While it’s okay to offer a seat out of courtesy, personal space should also be respected. Most importantly, we should never resort to physical fights in public places."
