The videos showed garbage on the floors and overflowing trash cans.
A video of the newly opened Ayodhya Dham railway station in poor upkeep has gone viral on social media, prompting the Railways to impose a hefty fine on the station’s sanitation contractor. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), user @reality5473 shared three clips to show the deplorable condition of the railway station which was built last year with a three-storey building and new amenities. The videos showed garbage on the floors and overflowing trash cans.
The first video showed people sleeping outside the station and garbage tossed from the trash cans. The person making the video also pointed out how there was no cleaning on the streets.

DRM Lucknow’s post amassed several reactions from social media users who slammed travellers and also applauded the Indian Railway for taking immediate action.
“Good job guys. But this should not be a one-time thing. The cleanliness should be natural and perpetual,” wrote one user. “I don’t see dustbins anywhere? Keep separate wet and dry dustbins and increase awareness among the masses. Authorities are as much responsible as the contractor, you can’t shift the blame. Public also need to learn civic sense of ownership and keep things clean,” said another.
“Sir use some volunteers to educate people about cleaniness,” suggested a third.
