The video led to a wave of comments.
While some netizens called the Indian woman brave, others criticised her for the dangerous act.

“Surprised that an IPS officer finds it funny and so many just joking without a thought.”

Some people believed that the video may encourage others to do the same, which could lead to fatal consequences.
One user stated that the woman should be arrested.

“Trespassing across railway tracks is a punishable offence with a penalty of imprisonment up to 6 months and or fine up to Rs. 1000 (£10). So she should have been arrested.”
