A shocking video has emerged showing a man bathing in the aisle of a moving train, sparking waves of ridicule and outrage on social media.

The footage shows the man, identified as Pramod Shriwas, placing a bucket and a cup in the middle of the train aisle before beginning to bathe with soap and water, seemingly unconcerned by other passengers who witnessed and recorded the incident.

He later admitted that the act was performed to gain fame by creating a short social media video.

The video left fellow passengers shocked and amused, spreading rapidly online and generating laughter, criticism, and disbelief.

Authorities, including North Central Railway, acted quickly after the video went viral.

The Railway Protection Force (RPF) has initiated legal proceedings against the man for his inappropriate behavior and for disturbing other passengers.

Railway officials also urged passengers not to use trains for stunts or social media videos that cause inconvenience to others or damage public property.
