LPG crunch forces IRCTC to resume cooking onboard; 60% of railway food to be prepared on electricity

Wait 5 sec.

Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation is now cooking meals inside moving trains. This practice was stopped earlier but has resumed using electric induction stoves. The company is also using induction cookers at major stations. This change is due to a significant shortage of commercial LPG cylinders. The disruption has impacted IRCTC's financial performance.
