Indian Railways had stopped offering bedrolls and blankets in trains due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
New Delhi: Last year, Indian Railways had stopped offering bedrolls and blankets to passengers travelling in trains due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The measure was taken by Indian Railways to prevent the spread of coronavirus in the country.
However, with the winter season kicking in North India, travellers were expecting that the facility of providing bedrolls and blankets in trains could soon start again by Indian Railways. But that appears to be unlikely now.
In the ongoing winter session of the Indian Parliament, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav has clarified that Indian Railways has decided not to provide bedrolls and blankets to train passengers.
