‘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. 3/7 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.
