Gropers in India are called "eve teasers" and are commonly found on city busses and elsewhere where bodies are in close proximity. But in an airplane? I knew of an American woman in Delhi who carried a handy hat pin on busses. When groped she'd stick it into the fellow.
I agree... might be an issue but this is a bit much. The only reasoning for it may be is because now days you cant take a pin on a plane. But I don't think anyone that gropes people would have the money to be on a plane.
I'm glad you don't think they would have the money, but unfortunately, they do.
For example, consider this in our own backyard, when it is a prominent, 4-time republican lawmaker from Connecticut:
