Presently, these meal counters are arranged at over 100 stations having nearly 150 counters across the Indian Railways network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the future, they plan for further expansion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to this implementation , the meal counters had already been operated successfully on a pilot basis at around 51 stations, said the Indian Railway Officials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that Railways has extended this program, with counters now functional at more than 100 stations and nearly 150 counters in total, explained the officials while talking about the success story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They don’t want to stop here as now Railways is planning to set up this initiative on more stations very soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who Can Use These Services?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This service is introduced by Indian Railways especially considering the needs for general class passengers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIndian Railways, in collaboration with the Indian Railways Catering and TourismCorporation (IRCTC), is taking steps to cater to passengers, especially those in unreserved coaches, by offering hygienic meals and snacks at affordable rates,\u201d as mentioned in the media report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adding, \u201cWe are expecting an upsurge in passenger numbers during the summer season and understand the problems faced by those traveling in unreserved compartments, who may not always have access to convenient and pocket-friendly meal options.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Moving ahead, these meal counters have been located near general second-class (GS) coaches on platforms in order to ensure easy access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Much This Meal Will Cost?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Basically, these meals are divided into two varieties considering the need for passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, an economy meal is priced at Rs 20. Similarly, a snack meal is priced at Rs 50. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While talking about the accessibility of these meals, the official explained that the passengers can purchase refreshments directly from these counters, eliminating the need to search for vendors or step outside the station, the official explained.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
