TTEs lie down on platforms seeking better restroom facilities

Railway travelling ticket examiners (TTEs) staged a protest by lying down on the platforms of the Shoranur and Mangalore railway stations on Wednesday, International Workers Day, demanding better restroom facilities.

A joint action council of railway employees consisting of the Indian Railway Ticket Checking Staff Organization, Southern Railway Employees Sangh, Mazdoor Union, Dakshin Railway Employees Union, and Ticket Examiners Welfare Forum spearheaded the protest.

About 30 TTEs, including women, boycotted their restrooms and staged a demonstration at the Palakkad Junction railway station.
