The Ministry of Railways took to Twitter to announce that Bhopal Junction has been awarded the 4-star "Eat Right Station" certification by the Food Safety and Standard Association of India (FSSAI).
The certification is provided in recognition of the station's services of providing passengers with high-quality nutritious food. Out of the thousands of stations in India, only six have been granted this status so far, and the century-old Bhopal station is one among them. Praising the station's efforts, the ministry tweeted that the 4-star rating
indicates full compliance by the station to ensure safe and hygienic food is available to passengers.
The certification is part of a larger movement that aims to transform the food system followed by Indian Railways. It is an attempt to tackle the long-time complaints posed by passengers and netizens about the poor quality of railway food. Under the criteria posed by the certification, a 4-star indicates compliance of the station to food safety and hygiene measures.
While such a move was expected to reflect in newly developed stations, the century-old Bhopal Junction Railway Station has positively taken people by surprise by becoming a part of the movement and transforming their food milieu. Railway sources, while announcing the promising news, added that Bhopal junction serves as the connecting point for pilgrims from across Asia, who come to visit the world-famous heritage site - Stupa of Sanchi. The junction witnesses operations of over 200 passing through and originating trains on daily frequencies. With the large tourist inflow at the railway station, Bhopal junction was selected as one of the stations that would be redeveloped with world-class facilities. Working actively toward this goal, the station is now accessible through disable-friendly infrastructure, has ISO 9001: 2000 certification, and is the country's first railway station to have a sanitary napkin vending machine.
