An FIR has been filed against a Railway Protection Force (RPF) assistant sub-inspector following allegations of misbehavior by a couple during their journey on the Konkan Kanya Express on May 6, 2025. The couple, traveling with their child, boarded the train at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) and occupied a coach reserved for Thane passengers. The RPF officer instructed them and others to vacate the coach, leading to an altercation. The couple alleges that the officer manhandled and misbehaved with them. Upon reaching Ratnagiri, they lodged a complaint, resulting in the registration of the case, which was later transferred to the CSMT Government Railway Police (GRP). In response, the RPF officer filed a counter-complaint accusing the couple of obstructing a public servant from performing his duty .
