‘Serve Me Tea': Audacious Order To TTE Exposes Fake Railway Officer On Bihar Train
1/7
Indian Railways, a cornerstone of public transport in India, carries millions of passengers daily. Many choose rail travel for its perceived comfort, particularly on long journeys. The organisation continually works to ensure passenger safety and seamless travel. The Railway Protection Force (RPF) and Government Railway Police (GRP) work to prevent crime, while Travelling Ticket Examiners (TTEs) monitor ticket validity. Despite these efforts, serious offences continue to occur. A recent incident on a train in Darbhanga, Bihar, surprised railway staff, from TTEs to GRP officers.
The incident unfolded on June 5, 2025 aboard the Swadhin Senani Express. A man, dressed inconspicuously, entered the H-1 coach. He introduced himself to the train conductor as Alok Kumar Jha, claiming to be the Additional Divisional Railway Manager (ADRM) of Samastipur, Bihar. He then settled in and ordered tea. The situation changed drastically when the train arrived at Darbhanga station.

On-duty GRP officers boarded the train and grew suspicious of the self-proclaimed ADRM. They contacted the Board Security Control Room in Samastipur to verify his identity. The truth quickly emerged, and the GRP Darbhanga and Chief Ticket Inspector In-charge (CTTI) teams promptly arrested the man.
A video of the incident has been released, shocking railway employees. It depicts the man impersonating a senior railway official. When asked for identification, he became disruptive. Under questioning by the GRP, his impersonation was revealed.
During interrogation, the man finally confessed his true identity: Durga Kant Chowdhury from Nohan Badhiam, Madhubani. When pressed by the RPF Sub-Inspector, he initially claimed to be Alok Kumar Jha, the ADRM. But the officer, firm and relentless, demanded proof and challenged his story. Cornered, the man admitted he was only the ADRM's nephew. The Sub-Inspector ordered him to leave the train, warning release would come only if the real ADRM confirmed. In that moment, the man's carefully crafted disguise shattered, caught between relief and the threat of exposure.

Video Claims To Show Indian Man Handcuffed, Pinned To Floor At US Airport: "Treated Like A Criminal"
A disturbing video of an Indian man being handcuffed and pinned to the ground by authorities at Newark Airport in New Jersey has gone viral on social media. Kunal Jain, an Indian-American entrepreneur who shared the video, claimed that the incident occurred on June 7, when the student was scheduled to board a flight but was left behind and later deported. Mr Jain shared the footage on X, describing the treatment as "deeply inhumane" and a "human tragedy". He expressed outrage and helplessness over the incident, stating that the student was "crying, treated like a criminal" and had come to the US "chasing dreams, not causing harm". The entrepreneur has called upon the Indian Embassy in the US to investigate the matter and provide assistance to the student. He also tagged the Indian Embassy and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, seeking help for the student. "I witnessed a young Indian student being deported from Newark Airport last night— handcuffed, crying, treated like a criminal. He came chasing dreams, not causing harm. As an NRI, I felt helpless and heartbroken. This is a human tragedy," the tweet read. Here's the video: I witnessed a young Indian student being deported from Newark Airport last night— handcuffed, crying, treated like a criminal. He came chasing dreams, not causing harm. As an NRI, I felt helpless and heartbroken. This is a human tragedy. @IndianEmbassyUS #immigrationraids — Kunal Jain (@SONOFINDIA) June 8, 2025 Mr Jain further stated that the student in the video appeared to be speaking Haryanavi. According to him, there have been multiple similar cases of Indians being deported recently due to their inability to explain the purpose of their visit to immigration authorities. Mr Jain noted that these individuals often receive their visas and board flights without issue, only to be detained and deported the same day, sometimes being restrained like criminals. "This poor kid's parent won't know what's happening to him. @IndianEmbassyUS @DrSJaishankar He was to be boarded last night on the same flight with me, but he never got boarded. Someone needs to find out what's going on with him with the New Jersey authorities. I found him disoriented," he added. NDTV is not able to verify the authenticity of the claims made by the user. The video has sparked widespread outrage and concern over the treatment of Indians abroad, with many demanding official intervention from the Indian government. However, some also questioned the circumstances surrounding the event. One user wrote, "Handcuffed? May be wrong, but did he come the right way? If not, then what is wrong if he is being deported?" Another commented, "You are not alone, most of the NRIs are not helpless, right word is useless when it comes to stand together. We are so selfish, in the next coming years we will feel the heat cos of our attitude." A third said, "What do u mean by he's not been able to explain to the US authorities. If he can't speak English, how did he clear his exams? What kind of courses was he going to take?" A fourth user added, "He was questioned for 5-6 hours, also an Indian chap called in to converse, but he failed to give correct answers, yes, he shouldn't be treated in sucha manner, rather escorting him and calling the embassy or consular but it seems they've a different set of rules."

Viral video of handcuffed Indian student at US airport sparks online outrage
Image credits: X/@SONOFINDIA Trump's immigration crackdown might seem like a policy decision for him, but for students and families who migrated to the land of dreams with hopes for a better future, living in America recently has been nothing short of a nightmare. Students from various countries are being arrested by ICE officials at random moments and being threatened with deportation to their homeland. The constant raids at homes and arrests on the streets have created an environment of panic and danger among the immigrants. Recently, an Indian-American entrepreneur took to X to share a video of an Indian student being handcuffed by police officials. Kunal Jain, a social entrepreneur who writes books in Hindi and recently relocated to India posted about the incident which happened at Newark airport. "I witnessed a young Indian student being deported from Newark Airport last night— handcuffed, crying, treated like a criminal. He came chasing dreams, not causing harm. As an NRI, I felt helpless and heartbroken. This is a human tragedy." wrote Jain while tagging the Indian embassy in the US. He also tagged the Minister of External Affairs, S. Jaishankar adding that the young boy was supposed to board the same flight as him but didn't. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Device Made My Power Bill Drop Overnight elecTrick - Save upto 80% on Power Bill Pre-Order Undo Asking to find out what happened to him at New Jersey authorities. Social media reactions Image credits: X/@SONOFINDIA His post has gone viral all over social media with people reposting it and news websites covering it. The incident marks one of the many atrocities being faced by Indian students who are fearful and unsure of their future in America. Many people commented on Jain's post, condemning him for posting the incident and not staying around to help the young student. "So easy to write stories. If you were that concerned why didn't you get him released?" wrote a person. Others questioned the reason why Indian students went to America for higher studies in the first place with the high cost and low safety the country ensures. "Now US is not your dream land. It has become hell for you." "Indian students must seriously rethink studying in the US. It's no longer the dreamland we were sold. The reality today is stark; rising violence, internal strife, racial discrimination, and institutions overrun with woke nonsense," wrote another. A person marked how the way the student was being dealt with in public was not justified, writing, "Irrespective of his status, situation, language which you might not understand or you might not convince with his answers, totally agree. But not a way to treat in front of everyone like this." Another shared how being deported might just be a good thing for the student with India's rising development. "Deported to India? Why should he be sad? I mean he is going back to a rising superpower!" While most social media users were offended on behalf of the students, others asked if he had legally migrated to the States. "Sorry but he has an illegal status. He should be deported. He can come back to his country. There is no shortage of dreams here."
