Indian woman in Japan supports viral reel criticizing Indian tourists

Khush Ahlawat shares her experiences with Indian tourists in Japan
In her Instagram post, Ahlawat described Indians as often being among the 'loudest' in public spaces. She wrote, 'Stop being so loud. You're not the only ones living,' urging fellow Indians to be more considerate, especially in Japan, where people are generally soft-spoken. She added, 'Learn a thing or two before leaving Japan. No. 1 - being considerate about others. You can't do it like the Japanese, but you can start by speaking softly and not letting the whole world hear your conversations.'
Netizens react to the post
The post drew mixed reactions from social media users. One commented, 'I mean, even in India that pisses me off, so I can't imagine how it must feel to them.' Another wrote, 'So true. I live here and unfortunately encounter such Indians on a daily basis because I work at a famous tourist spot.' A third user remarked, 'India is so noisy that people are used to screaming at each other.' Another shared, 'Tell me about it!!! My everyday train story in Swiss. The loudest are Indian travellers. Please people understand where you are! The whole train doesn't need to hear your experience and what your family thinks on a video call that you are having without headphones.'
The Tribune could not independently verify the claims made in the post.
