Indian Railway reply dirty bedsheet

I usually enjoy taking the Indian trains since it allows me to experience things up close in an impossible manner on airplanes. Additionally, trains are cost-effective, which is why daily passengers like me mostly prefer trains to travel far away. But occasionally, the services offered by Indian Railways absolutely ruin my mood because they are consistently subpar.

Like me, other Indian rail passengers routinely suffered from this and complain about the subpar services provided by 2-tier and 3-tier trains. What most hurts or anger routine railway travelers is that these services are not improving by even 1%. Instead of this, they get worse and worse.

However, social media’s emergence has made it much easier to call attention to problems with the general service provided on trains. Customers can now mention Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Indian Railways that provides ticketing, catering, and tourism services to customers, on Twitter, where complaints are filed and promptly answered.

A passenger alleges that he got a dirty bedsheet which is covered with dust and someone’s else hair

Taking to Twitter, he wrote,

“@RailwaySeva @RailMinIndia Bedsheet & pillow cover r in extreme Unhygienic condition. Without cleaning it just packed in paper bag & provided us. other persons multiple hair is stuck on it and even smell bad like it was used earlier but not washed. High price and low clas service”

Responding to his tweet, Indian Railways wrote,

“We request you to please share the journey details (PNR/UTS No.) and Mobile No. with us via DM. You may also raise your concern directly on http://railmadad.indianrailways.gov.in or dial 139 for speedy redressal.”

Soon, his tweet attracts several other complaints and as of now, it directs lots of criticism toward Indian railways
