Friday, February 4, 2012: Justice D Sreedevi, Kerala Women’s Commission Chairman has said that evidence will be collected from MR Jayageetha, poet and Research Officer in the State Planning Board.She added that the issue will be brought into attention of National Women’s panel if needed.
Jayageetha, a regular passenger of the train, was alone in a compartment when one of the ticket examiners asked her to come and join them in another compartment on Friday evening. Jayageetha informed about the misbehaviour to her husband and DYFI Kollam area secretary Shivaprasad. He immediately reached the railway station when the train arrived around 7 pm.
The two ticket examiners allegedly showered abusive words on Shivaprasad and Jayageetha. Following this, the couple met the Station Manager and lodged a complaint. Meanwhile, the railway withdrew the suspension of two ticket examiners identified as Jafar and Praveen on Tuesday. The suspension was withdrawn saying the complaint lodged against the two doesn’t exist.
