Viral video shows underwear vending machine at Delhi Metro station
India
A viral Instagram video has put underwear vending machines at a Delhi Metro station in Rohini East in the spotlight.
People are both amused and puzzled, with comments like "Are you in Japan by any chance?" and "Have so many questions and so few answers."
The sight of these machines has definitely caught commuters off guard.
User points out need during periods
Beyond the surprise factor, some users see real value—one pointed out these machines could help during periods or emergencies, saying, "if they have it, we don't have to worry about our periods then or if we get stains or leakage."
The sight comes amid calls for better menstrual hygiene in the system, though only a handful of stations actually have working sanitary pad dispensers right now.
