At Patna Junction, there was a sudden strange atmosphere when obscene videos started showing in place of the advertisement running on the TV screen installed on the platform. This lasted for about three minutes after which there was chaos at the junction. At the same time, the passengers got angry and started lashing out at the railway manager. The playing of obscene videos instead of advertisements on the TV screen created a stir on the platform packed with passengers.
RPF and GRP stopped the video
No official was informed about the airing of the video. As soon as the video aired, the passengers got agitated and people immediately informed the RPF and GRP about it. As soon as the information about the broadcast of the porn video came, RPF and GRP also started fluttering their hands and feet. He immediately called the agency of the company running the advertisement and got the broadcast stopped and immediately informed the DRM and other senior railway officials.
Agency will be blacklisted with FIR
Railway’s commercial department has registered an FIR against advertising agency Datta Communication. In this regard, Railway Divisional Manager Prabhat Kumar says that this is a very serious matter. Along with imposing a fine on the operator of the advertising agency, he has also ordered termination of the company’s agreement with the Railways.
Officials are claiming to broadcast on only one platform
In relation to the airing of the porn video, officials say that from around 9:56 am to 9:59 am on Sunday morning, it was seen only on platform number 10, while Patna Junction has a total of 10 platforms and three footover bridges. Everyone has TV installed. When broadcasting is done simultaneously everywhere, then how come the officials are talking about telecasting porn videos only on platform number 10. In this regard, RPF post in-charge Sushil Kumar says that after investigation it became clear that the obscene video was telecast only on platform number 10.
employee arrested
Railway officials say that agency employees were found watching obscene videos when a raid was conducted in the control room of the agency.

This happened during Holi as well
In this regard, some people say that something like this had happened earlier during Holi as well, but the officials came to know about this later. At present, Railway Divisional Manager Prabhat Kumar has announced to blacklist the company so that a similar situation does not recur next time. At present, how this video went is being investigated.
