The woman, at the centre of the argument, mocked the man in return, further escalating the drama happening inside the metro coach.
Another day, another video straight from Delhi Metro. In the latest viral clip, a man is seen involved in a heated argument with a group of women after he refused to give up his seat for a female passenger. It all started when a man travelling on the Blue Line near Janakpuri West with his backpack and earphones on responded sarcastically to bystanders asking him to “be the bigger person” and give up his seat.
The woman, at the centre of the argument, also mocked the man in return, further escalating the drama happening inside the metro coach. Despite everyone’s insistence and repeated requests, the man did not give up and kept his seat. The incident was recorded by one of the women who could be heard saying, “You’ve caused a commotion in the entire coach.” She added, “Try being quiet for once. Be the bigger person and show some manners.”

Unaffected by what unfolded, the commuter repeated her words in an aggressive tone before exiting the train. As the video progresses, it is seen that the man finally stood up but not because of what you are thinking of. He was not giving in but had to give off at the next stop.
Upon being shared, the clip caught everyone’s attention, prompting viewers to react which further led to a debate. A section of people defended the man and argued that the seat wasn’t reserved for anyone and that he had every right to sit. Others, however, criticised him for his questionable behaviour.
