Passengers travelling by train may want to think twice before buying packaged water or food from unauthorised sellers onboard. The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) has intensified inspections across railway stations and trains to curb the sale of unapproved packaged drinking water, food, beverages and other products.
As part of the drive, IRCTC has activated Quick Response Teams (QRTs) across its zones and regions. The teams are conducting regular and surprise checks in coordination with the commercial departments of the Indian Railways.
