The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) presented the report in Parliament about the food served by Indian Railways. The senses will fly away knowing about it. The CAG has disclosed in its report that the Indian Railways' food is not suitable for humans.

The CAG presented this report in Parliament on Friday (July 21). The report says that Contaminated food items, recycled food and canned and bottled goods are used even after expiry date.

The CAG has also disclosed how cleanliness is not paid attention to the cooking of food.

In the inspection of 74 stations and 80 trains, the CAG found that cleanliness is not paid attention while preparing food. The impure water is used directly from the tap to prepare food or drinks. During the inspection the lids of the dustbin were found missing and it was also found that their washing work was not done regularly. No cover is used to protect food from flies-insects. At the same time, there were cockroaches and mice in some trains.

CAG has found in the audit that due to frequent changes in the food policy of the Railways, passengers have very much problems.

Apart from this, the disclosure of violation of several rules has also been done through this report. Customer is not billed after taking food or other items. Food is also served in less than the fixed quantity.

In addition, the report also states that approved items like drinking water are also sold in trains. At the same time, a lot of goods were sold at higher prices than the market price.
