This TC obstructed the doors of an AC local at Ghatkopar station to fine a commuter. Every time the door shut, he stopped it. Good that he fined a ticketless traveler, but how can one justify the obstruction? @drmmumbaicr pic.twitter.com/cuS2DbLqdl

While acknowledging that action against a ticketless passenger was justified, Singh questioned the decision to obstruct the train doors. He also tagged the official account of the Divisional Railway Manager, Mumbai Division, Central Railway, seeking clarification.
Responding to the post, the official account of the Senior Divisional Commercial Manager, Mumbai Division, Central Railway, said an inquiry had been conducted into the incident.
"During enquiry, it was revealed that the door was obstructed for a few seconds in the course of handing over the receipt to the passenger," the response stated. It added that the checking was carried out following complaints about unauthorised passengers travelling on AC local trains.
