Excellent food at Railway stations

The Indian Railway, which has been avoiding privatization, now likes the franchise system. The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation Ltd is planning to hand over its excellent food plaza chain at the railway stations to franchises.

Under these arrangements, the IRCTC is going to start a food plaza and food unit in the form of a restaurant. For this, the stations have been divided into five categories A-1, A, B, C and D. The A-1 category stations may run a food plaza while the others would run a fast food unit. Gwalior has been placed in A-1 category and Morena in A category.

A food plaza is going to open on Gwalior station while Morena will have a fast food unit. The food plaza at Gwalior station would be set up on the first floor near the retiring room.

PRO Jhansi division Ravi Prakash said that the IRCTC food plaza and IRCTC fast food unit would be run under watch of IRCTC which would be like any high-end restaurant. Under this arrangement, the railway would have no control except on the quality of food items. The company taking the franchise would be free to fix the price of the food items.
