Mughalsarai: Passengers travelling in New Delhi-Howrah Rajdhani Express had tough time yesterday when they were forced to eat poor quality food that was served to them by the pantry officials.
When train arrived at the Mughalsarai junction, 20 hours late from its schedule arrival at 01:45 am, passengers protested at the platform alleging the pantry officials are serving them only biryani and that the quality is very bad.
Passengers were not allowing the train to leave the platform and resorted to chain pulling.

They also said that no extra bottle of packaged drinking water was given to them.
“Train is 20 hours late. There is no water... the breakfast was served very late. They served is with the leftover rice in food,” a passenger said.
The manager of the pantry car, soon after noticing the chaos, fled from the spot.
The RPF jawans later on pacified the agitating passengers by assuring that their complaints will be looked into.
After a brief stop at the Mughalsarai junction, the train left for its destination, an official said.
