PAC asks Railways to fix gaps in passenger amenities within a month, submit action-taken report
Parliament’s PAC slams Railway Board for failing to provide drinking water in 188 stations, high-level platforms missing in 97 stations, and 96% lacking bio-toilets. CAG audit exposes gaps despite Ministry claims.

KC Venugopal is learnt to have told the officials that several ATRs by the Ministry of Railways have claimed that amenities are in place but CAG’s latest audit presents a different picture.
