A shocking video is going viral on social media, showing a train passenger openly stealing from vendors inside a crowded train. The video has left many people angry, as the man is seen taking items without paying, while others around him laugh and stay silent.

The video begins with a vendor walking through the narrow aisle of the train, carrying a big bag filled with goods like food and drinks. As he offers items to the passengers, one man sitting cross-legged on the upper bunk starts talking to him. But instead of buying anything, the man suddenly bends down and takes a packet of juice from the vendor’s bag. His face shows no shame. In fact, he looks happy and amused, clearly enjoying what he just did.

This was not a one-time thing. The man continues to take items from other vendors passing by. He steals pakoras (fried snacks) and several bottles of water. Instead of stopping him, the passengers around him laugh, almost as if they are enjoying the show.

The video was shared online with a strong caption: "He thinks stealing from poor vendors is 'comedy.' This guy needs to be detained."

Many people on social media were quick to criticise the man’s actions. One user wrote, "He is so proud of himself. Look at that smile." Another said, "It is not about his problem; it's about the people sitting beside them, and no one is saying anything. And everyone is making fun of it!!!"

Some users even tagged railway authorities and the Railway Protection Force (RPF), asking for action. One tweet said, "@RPF_INDIA, identify and fine him for this misdemeanour crime. People cannot be allowed to get away with stealing from others like this. Where is the rule of law?"

Another user pointed out the silence of the passengers. "Law is for the people. Here it is seen that co-passengers are enjoying his activities... So it means He entertained the passenger, and that too free of cost."

A final comment questioned the whole scene: "What does it say about the person who is creating a reel out of this cheap act? Ladies sitting down are simply watching and smiling, not objecting to it."
