Title - Stinky blanket and unwashed bed roll in Rajdhaani Express

It seems that “Swachh Rail Swachh Bharat” (Clean rail Clean India) initiative has not affected or apply to some Rajdhaani Express connecting National Capital to various places of India. The reason might be that these trains were not in the inspection list.

Passengers travelling in 12310 New Delhi-Rajendra Nagar Rajdhani Express on Monday complained about stinky blanket and unwashed Bed-Roll. Many passengers who were travelling to Patna said that Up train always starts with clean bed rolls but ‘down’ carries the same used ones. It’s not the first time they have noticed, infact it is a usual practise.

Although after complaint bed-sheets do change but blanket remains same with its unbearable smell. Also from the food menu Curd and ice cream was unavailable which is a part of fixed menu of every Rajdhaani Express.

It should be noted that in any case after completion of journey, bedrolls are sent to laundry but blankets are used repeatedly.
