You don’t have to worry about strangers watching porn around you if you’re traveling across Patna Junction in India anymore. That’s a relief.
A survey by RailTel found that the Patna Junction station was at the top of the list of stations in India with maximum internet searches for porn sites, according to India Times. This station is one of the most crowded as well as one of the oldest with more than 200 trains passing through it each day. It also grew in notoriety for the inappropriate use of wi-fi services among its travelers.
A railway official said that “More than any other railway station in the country, where free Wi-Fi service was launched, the Patna railway station is on the top in the country for using internet search, particularly searches for porn sites.”
The station provides free Wi-Fi services at all major stations falling under the ECR jurisdiction to allow passengers to know where their trains are running. East Central Railway (ECR) CPRO Arvind Rajak said the benefit was being used for ‘other’ purposes with porn being more common than Bollywood or Hollywood film streaming, or app usage.
Indian Railways confirms that porn sites have now been blocked and administrating officials have confirmed plans to block inappropriate sites from their other railway stations.
