New Delhi: In a social media post that has gone viral on social media, a woman has stated that her cousin sister was molested multiple times aboard Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) buses on route 544.

The woman said that her 19-year-old cousin, who has been staying in the Capital for the past three months, has been molested at least seven times inside the bus.

She alleged that some boys specifically choose the bus to harass girls, as it regularly ferries young college girls.

"She told me of this breed of molesters who travel on route 544 plying from South Ex specifically because that bus carries young girls on their way to college - Kamala Nehru and Gargi," the woman wrote.

"Who regularly and repeatedly do things that make her eyes sting with tears to even repeat," her post further read.

She added that on one occasion, her cousin raised an alarm and got one molester thrown out. However, he was back on the same bus the very next day.

The woman said these are not coincidences, but sickening individuals who travel on that bus with the sole purpose of harassing young girls.

Narrating another incident, the woman stated that her sister had once been harassed to a point that she dashed out of the bus into incoming traffic to save herself from the molesters.

"Make it mandatory for that bus to have a uniformed police officer," she urges the Delhi government.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Vijay Kumar said, "We are looking into the matter and have requested the girl to contact us so that proper action could be taken."
