Sir,
As a further step to Swachhatha Abhiyaan, the Railways should take steps to say ‘NO’ to plastics in the trains. The vendors selling eatables like idli and dosa wrap them with thin plastic papers while the vendors selling groundnuts too pack them in plastic covers.
I have in my journey, advised them several times to desist from this practice and use green leaves or paper for packing. This has fallen on deaf ears and they continue their own practices. As a result the passengers after eating the same throw the waste along with plastic covers on the floor of the coach making them dirty.
It is high time the Railways take up the matter on priority and take action against the vendors to put an end to use of plastics.
