Railways allows e-catering facility at selected stations

In an official statement, Railway Ministry stated that it will be subject to compliance of all the guidelines on health and safety matters issued by Central and state governments and other authorised agencies under them.

The Indian Railways allowed e-catering services to resume at selected railway stations. The ministry said that it may noted that IRCTC had written to the Railway Board for the resumption of e catering at selected railway stations.

"IRCTC will have to review the situation now and permit the resumption of e-catering services depending upon the feasibility, availability of staff and local restrictions etc," it said.

The e-catering services had been suspended as a measure to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
