The other day I was coming university hall riding on a bus. I was listening to news using my mobile phone. I found a young man just sitting two sit away from me who was listening to music using his mobile phone without using any headphone. His mobile phone was making such a sound that though I was using a headphone I failed to concentrate to current news. One stage I politely asked him to lower the volume. He unwillingly lowered the volume. But that was not enough. Still the sound his set was emitting had been very disturbing for the fellow passengers. Everyone around him was looking at him but he did not care.
The young guy looked very smart and posh. Perhaps he is a student like me. But his behavior did not represent his class.
This was not the first time I have encountered such an incident. But the most unfortunate thing is whenever I had faced such incident I found that the concerned person as educated, mostly is student.
We can not expect this type of behavior from our future generation. I am not against using mobile phone or listening to music, news through mobile phone. Personally I would not have bothered if his behavior was not bothering me.
You may argue saying it is my right and I can listen to whatever I like. I agree and nobody will disagree. But by doing this are not you violating the passengers’ rights of a comfortable journey?
