Key details: The incident took place in the Akal Takht Express between Amritsar and Kolkata on Sunday, 12 March.

  • The accused has been identified as Munna Kumar, a travelling ticket examiner (TTE)

  • He was drunk, news agency IANS reported

  • Kumar has been detained and taken into custody by the Government Railway Police (GRP)
