Women in Mumbai travel dangerously

Talk of equality between woman and man? Well …both travel dangerously in Mumbai



What does it matter if its ladies first class or ladies second class?



Mumbai women are brave; they go to work travelling dangerously, with their bodies protruding out of the train and unfortunatedly unlucky one crash against the pole or lose their grip.

Thats life in Mumbai for you!!

Will our Mumbai trains ever have doors that shut when the train is in motion?
