Man finds cockroach in meal served on Vande Bharat Express, IRCTC apologises

A passenger travelling from Rani Kamlapati to Jabalpur on Vande Bharat Express on February 1 was ‘traumatised’ after he found a dead cockroach in his meal. After getting down at the Jabalpur railway station, he filed an official complaint with the West Central Railway. Two days later, the man shared the



incident on X. IRCTC responded to the tweet and apologised to him.

“I was travelling on 1/02/2024 train no. 20173 RKMP to JBP (Vande Bharat Exp). I was traumatised by seeing a dead cockroach in the food packet given by them,” wrote Dr Shubhendu Keshari while sharing a few pictures on X.
