Passengers at the busy Rajiv Chowk Metro station in central Delhi’s Connaught Place were left shocked when a pornographic film allegedly got played at the LED screens installed on a platform on April 9.
The screen which used to display advertisements, all of sudden started showing porn video which lasted less than a minute. While some passed in hurry, many others stopped to record it on their phones, a video of the incident shown.
The video was uploaded on social media and was shared several times.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation spokesperson said a probe has been initiated to check whether the video being shared online is authentic and who may be responsible for it.
“DMRC is not aware of this clip. However, this LED screen was under commissioning and testing by a private contractor. The work is still not completed. We will check all the details of the testing and commissioning process of the contractor to check whether any such clip was played on the LED screen at Rajiv Chowk station and take adequate safeguards/ action,” a spokesperson said.
Delhi Police sources said they are yet to officially receive a complaint in the matter but CISF sources confirmed the incident.
