So I walk back from work everyday. I work at Razorpay so I live nearby and save on commute costs by walking.
Near Forum Mall, I have noticed that often times there are members of the trans community who force you to pay money to them. Even if you try to ignore them they will grope your private parts and sexually harass you by calling you names. I do not usually carry cash, so they asked me to pay Rs. 500.
I ddenied and after negotiating sent them Rs. 120 via GPay. I do not want to pay, is it like some unofficial toll tax?
One time, I even saw them chasing someone who was trying to run away from them. They literally lifted their saree and exposed themselves to the entire mall while running.
I am generally very respectful to them and have worked for NGO Projects for their community. But I feel that recently this has become a major problem within the city. I have noticed them harassing people everywhere now. From Red Lights to outside Malls.
I have complained to Forum Mall frontdesk but they refuse to do anything.
Stay Safe people.
This is a problem all across Bangalore. I live near MG Road and its much worse out here. I stopped taking ricks and only take cabs or my personal vehicle now so that I can avoid these circumstances
