A woman riding the Delhi Metro says she was harassed by an elderly passenger for wearing jeans and a full-sleeve corset top.

At first, the victim thought it was just accidental contact, but soon realized it was deliberate as the complaints got louder.
In an unexpected turn, the alleged harasser dozed off and missed her station.
