Porn clip plays on big screen at Rajiv Chowk metro station, DMRC orders probe

NEW DELHI: In an incident that has left the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) red-faced, a porn clip was accidentally played on a large advertisement screen at one of the busiest metro stations in New Delhi.
Commuters at Delhi Metro's Rajiv Chowk station were shocked to see the explicit video being streamed on the big LED screen.
Some enterprising people stopped and recorded the entire episode on their mobile phones.One of these videos, shot on April 9, was shared on social media, and since then has gone viral.
In the video, while most walked past the TV screen playing the X-rated film, either clueless or faking nonchalance, a few slowed down to point and stare.
DMRC has ordered a probe into the bizzare incident, and issued a statement clarifying that the screen at Rajiv Chowk Metro Station on which porn was played is reserved for commercials.
"The LED TV (Smart TV having multiple features) system was under commissioning and wifi port was accessible. Prima facie,as per CCTV footage, 3 men have run porn clip through their mobile on this TV at Rajiv Chowk station. Attempts are being made to identify these men. CCTV Footage is under examination to identify the culprits," DMRC spokesperson Anuj Dayal said.
The official assured that such a disruption in the system will not be possible in the future once software is programmed and centrally controlled.
Rajiv Chowk Metro Station, located at Connaught Place in central Delhi, falls on the busy intersection of Blue Line and Yellow Line of the metro network, and receives a heavy footfall daily.
