The fight to catch a Mumbai local

Image
While travelling in a Mumbai local train one late evening, the train was relatively empty...there was a policeman at the door and very few women around. And minutes later as the crowd started getting in few stations later on we could hear women fighting and struggling to board in from the other door. All heads were turned towards those women boarding the train to check whether everything was fine, n there is nothing to worry. Nothing had happened. As Mumbaikars are always in hurry they fail to see that the train is empty, with a number of seats to occupy, but they still compete with each other for seats.
