In a disturbing incident, travel vlogger Vishal Sharma was allegedly assaulted by pantry staff aboard the Hemkunt Express (Train No. 14609) after he complained about being overcharged for water, coffee, and instant noodles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Youtuber<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Complaint Turns Violent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sharma, traveling in the 3rd AC compartment, posted a video on social media platform X, claiming an attempt was made to “kill” him after he pointed out overpricing by the pantry service. In the video, he confronts the staff for charging \u20b920 for a bottle of \u201cWonder Aqua\u201d water and \u20b920 for a \u20b910 coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vlogger Shows Evidence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The video shows Sharma filing a complaint via the Railways app, which acknowledged the issue and said appropriate action would be taken. However, things escalated when the pantry staff returned later at night<\/a>. Despite Sharma refusing to come down from his berth, he was forcibly pulled down and allegedly beaten. The video captures him shirtless and bleeding, questioning passenger safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lack of Immediate Support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sharma stated that other passengers asked the staff to stop, but were ignored. He later disembarked at Kathua station at 4:40 AM and approached local police, but claimed they did not cooperate in filing an FIR. His railway helpline call also yielded no support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
