Overview
- Vivek Shukla’s X post, which went up Friday, alleged a man kept his feet on a lounge table at Bangkok’s Don Mueang Airport while children disrupted a nearby work room.
- He wrote “We Indians are the worst travellers” and said lounge staff asked the man to move his feet multiple times but he refused.
- The post drew wide engagement online, with Free Press Journal citing more than 161,000 reactions after Hindustan Times earlier reported about 75,000 views.
- Reactions split between calls for better etiquette or penalties for ignoring staff and warnings against judging all Indians from one incident, with some users defending the children.
- Indian outlets amplified the post but added they have not independently verified the images or claims, and there have been no public responses from the airport or the lounge operator.
