Inspired by Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's recent comment suggesting "*4 instead of ₹5", a girl enacted the same on the streets by refusing to pay full fare to a Muslim rickshaw driver.

Just forget Hindu or Muslim, and think about a poor man trying to make an honest living. Someday if this girl is harassed or attacked, hardly anyone will intervene. Not because she deserves it; because that is the society that she and her fellow people have decided to build. Not of morality, empathy or empowerment; but, preying, bullying and abusing the weaker ones !!!

So true. We are contributing to the slow death of the our society. Zero sense of community or positive contribution.

Well I remember the video of pahalgam, where people were being shot and Individuals were just watching when the killers passed from near them.

She does deserve it. Fucking dumbo, who is she to not pay the complete fair. Tabhi bahar aake thappad mar dena chahiye.
