UNFIT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION !
A CAG (Comptroller and Auditor General) report has found the food served by the Railways in trains and at railway stations unsuitable for human consumption. Passengers are forced to buy contaminated and recycled foodstuff at prices higher than those in the open market and often no bills are issued. Packaged and bottled items past their shelf life are available for sale as also unauthorized brands of water bottles, indicating poor monitoring. CAG and railway teams have come out with these findings after conducting a joint inspection at 74 railway stations and on 80 trains. Besides, the report has found lack of cleanliness at the catering units at stations and on trains. For frequent travellers this may not be a surprise.
