The man sought strict action against the food vendor and requested the Railways to ensure this does not happen to anyone.
A couple were travelling in the new Vande Bharat express train from Bhopal to Agra, a 550 km journey that takes approximately seven hours to cover. Food was delivered to them, but to their surprise, a cockroach was present in their meal. Today on 18-06-24 my Uncle and Aunt were travelling from Bhopal to Agra in Vande Bharat.They got "COCKROACH" in their food from @IRCTCofficial. Please take strict action against the vendor and make sure this would not happen again @RailMinIndia @ AshwiniVaishnaw @RailwaySe pic.twitter.com/Gicaw99I17 Sir, We apologize for the travel experience you had.The matter has been viewed seriously and suitable penalty has been imposed on concerned service provider.
