Indore Metro issues guidelines, penalties for safe & efficient travel

Time of India4 days ago

Indore: As Indore embraces its new era of urban transport with the recently launched Metro, MPMRCL has issued a comprehensive set of "Dos and Don'ts" to ensure a smooth, safe, and respectful experience for all passengers.
Additionally, the guidelines include a list of 'violations' that can lead to penalties and even imprisonment.
Adherence to these guidelines, which have also been posted at every station of the Indore Metro, is crucial for maintaining the efficiency and pristine condition of the city's latest public transit system, senior officials said.
The offences and penalties that MPMRCL has identified include drunkenness, causing a nuisance, spitting, sitting on the floor of the train, quarrelling, taking offensive materials, defacing metro properties, and unauthorized sale of tickets.
For each of these violations, the authority has fixed a penalty of Rs 200. Additionally, there is a penalty of Rs 400 for the unauthorized sale of articles on the metro railway.
Travelling without a ticket or pass will make the passenger liable for an excess charge of Rs 50 and the maximum fare of the system. According to the guidelines, demonstrating of any kind upon the railway, writing, pasting in compartments or carriages, or refusal to be removed can result in exclusion from attending demonstrations, removal from compartments or carriages, or a fine of Rs 500.

This penalty and imprisonment are doubled for unlawful entry and walking on the metro track.
Obstructing officials on duty can lead to imprisonment of up to 1 year or a fine of up to Rs 1,000, or both.

Forget texts, calls or emails: Woman catches cheating husband using electric toothbrush. Here's how

In a world where cheating is often uncovered through texts, calls, or shady messages, one UK woman cracked her husband's lies using something far more mundane—an electric toothbrush. Yes, you read that right. It wasn't WhatsApp or a lipstick-stained shirt that gave him away. It was a synced toothbrush app that recorded his every brushstroke. Private investigator Paul Jones, who recounted the bizarre case to Mirror UK , called it one of the strangest infidelity busts he's seen in his career. But in a digital age where even our toothbrushes are smart, perhaps the betrayal wasn't so surprising after all. Brushing Off the Truth—Until It Brushed Back The woman had connected the toothbrush app to her phone to monitor her children's dental hygiene. But soon she noticed irregularities in the brushing logs—not from her kids, but her husband. Logs showed he was brushing at home during school hours and regular workdays, especially on Fridays. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Container Houses Vietnam (Prices May Surprise You) Container House | Search ads Search Now Undo At first, the data seemed trivial. But week after week, brushing sessions popped up at suspiciously similar times—late mornings on Fridays when he was supposedly at work. The digital trail didn't lie. It told a precise, timestamped story: someone was at home brushing their teeth while pretending to be at the office. The Dirty Truth Curious and increasingly suspicious, the woman hired Jones to investigate further. What he found confirmed her worst fears. Her husband hadn't worked on a Friday in over three months. Instead, he was inviting his mistress—one of his coworkers—over to the family home while the rest of the household was out.

But his toothbrush had kept a perfect record of his infidelity, logging every session and outing him with brutal digital honesty. Data Doesn't Lie, People Do Jones emphasized the importance of noticing seemingly insignificant digital cues. 'It's timestamped, often location-based, and emotionless,' he said. 'When a device says someone brushed their teeth at 10:48 am on a workday, that's very hard to explain away.' He urged those suspicious of infidelity not to limit their attention to text messages or phone records. Instead, he advised looking into smart devices—be it a toothbrush, voice assistant, or even supermarket loyalty apps—that quietly collect data in the background. The New Digital Detectives Jones isn't the only private eye warning about hidden digital trails. Another UK investigator, Aaron Bond, said supermarket loyalty cards like Tesco's Clubcard are another untapped resource for uncovering deception. These apps log dates and locations of purchases—meaning a simple trip to a different store can contradict an alibi.

From toothbrushes to shopping apps, our everyday devices are evolving into unintentional truth-tellers. While lies can be rehearsed and stories spun, data remains precise and unfeeling. It doesn't care about guilt, shame, or excuses—it just logs what happened and when. So next time something feels off in your relationship, you might not need to dig through messages or check the call history. Just open the toothbrush app—you might find more than just plaque.
