Complaint of ‘Dusty Cornflakes’ Served in Vande Bharat Express Train

Two days after the Mumbai-Shirdi ‘Vande Bharat Express’ train was flagged off, a photo of its “dusty cornflakes” served to a passenger is doing rounds on the internet. The passenger, Viresh Narkar, on Sunday shared a photo on Twitter complaining about the quality of food served on the train while travelling to Sainagar Shirdi. Narkar called the train “magnificent” and meanwhile listed out the problems like the placement of executive class coaches and cleaning methods. He also posted two pictures on Twitter, one of a worker from the cleaning staff clearing the trash and another of the cornflakes served to him. Indian Railways through its Twitter handle @Railsewa responded to the complaint and directed the passenger to a link where he can track his complaint. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday dedicated two new Vande Bharat Express trains to the nation. Earlier this month, a journalist posted a video of a man showing the quality of the food served on the Secunderabad-Visakhapatnam Vande Bharat train. An IAS officer also shared a photograph on Twitter where a worker was seen clearing trash like empty water bottles, plastic bags, and paper scattered on the floor of the train.
