Taking to Facebook, she posted the whole incident on the social media: “I had my flight scheduled at 8:05 PM. As luck would have it, I was stuck in traffic for over 2 hours. It was already 7:20 PM, I was sure of not making it. At 7:32 PM, I requested the cabbie (politely) if it would be possible for him to drive me back home (Noida). On his denial, I asked him to drop me at my scheduled drop point (Terminal 3, IGI Airport). I could sense he was running out of patience. But I failed to predict what hit me in the next 5 minutes,” she writes.

The women got out of the car and tried to stop him, at one point of time the cab driver said “Maar Dalunga, Ladki Hai, Sambhal Ke reh”; this, in front of at least 15 people, who proclaim to be human beings,” she recounts. Meanwhile, she has raised the matter with cab aggregator while still waiting for an action against the driver.
