A video showing Gerardo Quirino Velázquez, the mayor of Tlajomulco de Zúñiga in Jalisco, Mexico, missing the inaugural ride of Line 4 of the Tren Ligero has gone viral. The mayor arrived late and was unable to board the train as it departed on schedule with other officials. The clip has gained traction on social media, prompting a wave of reactions that compare the situation to India, where public transport often adjusts to accommodate late officials. Users on social media emphasized that in Mexico, trains leave on time regardless of the presence of officials, contrasting this with India, where delays are common for VIPs. The mayor later shared the moment on social media with a humorous comment about the train's frequent service, stating, “Don’t worry, it comes every nine minutes.” This incident has triggered a wider conversation about punctuality and how public systems operate differently across countries.
