Mumbai's local trains carry more than eight million people a day.

Tiwari, who works as a software engineer, has been taking trains for the last 15 years. Despite the long experience the daily horror has not diminished. He spends five hours every day in the crowded trains to get to work and return. “It is so packed, people crush against my stomach and chest… It becomes hard to breathe," he says.

WTF

how is this not a safety violation? the train just DGAF and starts moving? how many people are crushed or dont have the strength to hold on until their next destination?
