Taking an initiative to cater to the needs of the passengers who travel by trains, a disposable linen kiosk has been started at the Patna junction, Danapur division.

Non-woven bed-sheet, inflatable pillow and blanket are available in packs ranging from Rs 50 to Rs 250, officials said.

They also include a complimentary 3-ply mask and a stiser sachet.

There are further plans to start more such kiosks at four more stations in the coming days.

It is important to note that the Indian Railways had decided to discontinue providing blankets, linen and curtains in the passenger trains once it partially resumed functioning following a stoppage in services due to the ongoing COVID-19 crisis.
