The incident, according to reports, occurred earlier that day. A woman travelling from Bilekalli to Shivajinagar reportedly argued with the conductor about her ticket. The video captures the woman yelling in Hindi, "How dare you hit me!" while other passengers try to calm the conductor down. However, the situation escalates as the conductor becomes violent, and the woman slaps him. In retaliation, the conductor unleashes a flurry of punches on her.
