Delhi Metro CISF Personnel Suspended After Alleged Photo Incident and Pistol DisplayPreviousNext

A confrontation occurred inside a Delhi Metro coach when a woman accused a CISF personnel of secretly photographing her. Passengers demanded he delete the photos, leading to a scuffle during which the personnel reportedly pointed his service pistol at commuters, causing panic. The incident took place near AIIMS Metro Station, prompting the suspension of the CISF jawan and a departmental inquiry. Police were informed, but the woman did not file a formal complaint. The episode has raised concerns about passenger safety and security personnel conduct.
