KOLKATA: Youngsters held an illustration on Wednesday outdoor the Tollygunj Metro Station in Kolkata towards the alleged ethical policing incident in a train on Tuesday and offered "free hugs" to other people to hotel their protest.
"We are doing nothing ... we are here just to spread love. Love will overpower everything. We have nothing more to say," a demonstrator mentioned.
The protesters were enraged over an incident happening on Monday overdue night when a couple was once overwhelmed up for "standing too close" in a Metro train.
"Be it love or anger or cruelty, it's all about expression. We are trying to spread positive expression, to do away with all the negativities around," mentioned a girl protester.
"How can anyone hit like this? I have my personal freedom of expression and this is meaningless?" mentioned a young guy outdoor Tollygunge Metro.
The town Metro officials also made it transparent that they were towards any more or less ethical policing.
"It is a peaceful protest. No one has complained about any difficulty due to the protest," mentioned a Kolkata Metro authentic.
"Dear commuters, there is a fake post circulating in the social media claiming that Metro Railway supports the passengers who allegedly thrashed the couple. The fact is that Metro Railway, Kolkata, strongly condemns the unfortunate incident and is against moral policing," the authority mentioned in its Facebook page.
Metro railway's CPRO Indrani Banerjee had on Tuesday mentioned other people were well inside of their right to check in their protest, but this will have to no longer disrupt train products and services in any means.
