Streamline mineral water installations at Railway Stations

Sir,

I find that at many Railway Stations, installations of Aquaguard mineral water are either not working or the person deputed to man is not available at such installations.

My recent experience was at Shivamogga Town Railway Station Platform No.1 on 3rd October 2017. I was at the Platform from 2.45 pm to 4.15 pm and was given to understand that the person deputed to man the aquaguard installation has gone for lunch (such a long period of lunch!).

Is there a network to ensure that passengers do not get mineral water from such installations by paying Rs.5 per litre, thus forcing the passengers to buy the same from catering stalls paying four times  the amount, that is Rs. 20 per litre.

I request the Railway authorities concerned to ensure that such installations function properly. The timings of  functioning of such installations  should also be clearly mentioned.
