A viral video allegedly showing a tourist inappropriately touching a foreign woman while she was walking on a busy street in Manali has triggered widespread outrage and renewed concerns about the safety of women tourists in the popular hill destination.
The video, which has been widely shared on social media, appears to show the woman reacting with shock after the incident.
The footage has drawn sharp criticism from netizens, with many demanding strict action against the accused and stronger measures to ensure tourist safety.
Police officials said no formal complaint had been lodged in connection with the incident so far, and therefore no legal action had been initiated.
However, local residents and stakeholders from the tourism sector have urged authorities to take suo motu cognisance of the matter.
