Now, the Indian Railways passengers will experience a different taste, as the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) will serve an updated food menu from today (July 15). This comes in wake of a new Indian Railways initiative that enables passengers to track how their meals are being prepared in the central kitchen through CCTV cameras live.
