Tea might be bought in environment-friendly ‘kulhads’ (earthen cups) rather than plastic cups at all railway stations within the nation, Railway Minister Piyush Goyal stated on Sunday.
The minister was talking at an occasion organised at the Dhigawara railway station in Rajasthan’s Alwar district to mark the inauguration of the newly electrified Dhigawara-Bandikui part beneath the North Western Railway.
This initiative would be the contribution of the Railways in direction of a plastic-free India, Mr. Goyal stated.
“Tea is given in ‘kulhad’ at nearly 400 railway stations in the country today, and in future, it is our planning that tea will be sold only in kulhads at all railway stations in the country. This will be the contribution of Railways towards plastic-free India,” he stated.
Kulhads save the setting and lakhs of individuals can get employment from it, Mr. Goyal added.
