Mumbai Cop Booked After Video of Him Dancing With a Woman on Local Train Goes Viral

A recent incident involving a Mumbai police officer has stirred controversy and garnered widespread attention on social media platforms. The officer in question, identified as SF Gupta, is facing scrutiny after a video surfaced online depicting him engaged in an impromptu dance session with a young lady inside a second-class ladies coach of a Central Railway local train. The incident unfolded on the evening of December 6, between 10:00 p.m. and 10:15 p.m., when Gupta was on duty as a home guard assigned to ensure the safety of women during nighttime travel.

The video, which quickly went viral, initially shows Gupta providing instructions to the lady who was filming a dance reel featuring her daughter. Concerned about her safety, Gupta is seen guiding her to prevent any accidents.

However, the situation takes an unexpected turn as the video transitions to Gupta actively participating in the dance alongside the woman.

Here’s the Viral Video:

Promptly responding to the incident, the Government Railway Police (GRP) filed a default report against Gupta on December 8, aiming to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future. Railway officials emphasised that all staff members have been explicitly instructed not to shoot, pose for videos or photos, or engage in selfies while in uniform and on duty. Thus, in a subsequent development, Gupta was summoned to provide an explanation for his actions.

While such dance videos have become prevalent on trains, the inclusion of a police officer on duty certainly took this trend to a concerning level.

Meanwhile, this occurrence echoes a similar incident in Kerala, where an inebriated police officer, KP Shaji, faced disciplinary action for dancing during a temple festival in Idukki. Shaji, an additional sub-inspector of the Santhanpara police station, was suspended from service due to his inappropriate behaviour while on official duty at the Poopara Mariamman Temple.
