The Indian Railways is an important part of the journey – tea. Drinking tea in the train is a special experience for every passenger. Many times the voice keeps echoing in the train compartment, “tea-hot, tea-hot,” which makes the journey even more pleasant. But recently a video has surfaced, which has raised questions on the truth hidden behind this fragrance and warmth.

Video revealed in the video: Washing tea kettle in the toilet
This video is of a man who is seen washing tea kettle (Dolchi) in the toilet of the train. It is clearly visible in the video that he is cleaning the kettle near the toilet seat and cleaning it with dirty water. This view is not only very unwavering, but also causes a serious threat to the health of the passengers. This question has now become very important for the passengers that the tea they drink in the train, is it really clean? Does railway catering make proper arrangements for cleaning utensils?
Video confirmation and reactions on social media
The video was shared by X (former Twitter) user @Bhanunand, and it became increasingly viral on social media. So far it has seen more than 3 lakh people.
Passengers and Neetzans reacted sharply to this video. Some users wrote:
“How lowly a person can get down?”
“Now I will not eat anything from the train.”
“There is such a big system, yet such a poor way for cleanliness?”
It is clear from such comments that the trust of the passengers is now in danger with railway catering service.
Railway response: cleanliness or refutation on video?
As soon as the video went viral, the Indian Railways’ service handle @railwayseva replied. He said:
“This video seems to be deliberately filmed.”
“Our catering staff do not use such utensils.”
“The utensils seen in the video look quite new, and it can be an outsider.”
The railway administration made it clear that the rules for catering and cleaning on their behalf are strictly applicable.
Passengers’s trust broken, questions about cleanliness increased
However, despite the railway reply, many users refused to express confidence. He says that whether the video is real or fake, it makes it clear that the Railways will have to take very strict steps about food and cleanliness standards. Describing the experience of the passengers, some users also mentioned the dirt and inconveniences related to catering during their journey, which makes it clear that the need to improve railway diet is very important.
