JAIPUR, India - Mahima Dutt Sharma rolls her eyes when men make excuses to gawk at her inside the booth where she checks tickets at India's only interstate train station run entirely by women.
"Even though all the information is displayed on boards, they keep coming again and again with silly queries," she said at Gandhinagar junction in Jaipur, where female station masters and clerks draw astonished looks.
"They are not used to seeing women handling such jobs, so I don't really blame them."
