Viral: Driver Stops Train to Collect 'Famous' Kachoris. And Then...
NDTV
Crossing gates are lowered every day at around 8 am in Alwar so kachoris can be delivered to the train driver.
A loco pilot brings the train to a halt at a railway crossing. On either side, commuters wait patiently as one man approaches the train. He hands over a packet of Alwar's famous khastakachori to someone in the engine compartment and walks away, casual as can be. After this, the loco pilot blows the horn and the train starts moving again. @AshwiniVaishnaw@RailMinIndia@GMNWRailway@DRMJaipur@drm_dliयह वीडियो एकwhatsappग्रुप के माध्यम से आज ओर अभी देखने को मिला हैक्या यह रेलवे नियमानुसार सही है अगर गलत है तो एक्शन लीजिए और सम्बंधित सभी व्यक्तियों पर कार्यवाही करें@vishalmrcool@JAGMALSINGH_MON@vasudhootpic.twitter.com/Tw5dtkozzn
This bizarre scene is repeated almost every morning at Alwar's Daudpur crossing, according to Dainik Bhaskar, and would likely have continued if the loco pilot's reckless behaviour had not been documented and shared online.
According to the report, the crossing gates are lowered every day at around 8 am so the snack can be delivered to the train driver. It is the railway personnel posted at the crossing who buy the kachori from a nearby shop and deliver it to the train. Meanwhile, hundreds of commuters are inconvenienced every morning for the sake of the driver's snack.
