Railway Stations: Ever Wondered Why There Are No Medical Stores on Platforms?

How does the Railways help in an emergency?

If a passenger’s health suddenly deteriorates during a journey, the Railways has a special facility for this. Railway employees like the TTE, Guard, and Station Master receive ‘First Aid’ training. Moreover, medical boxes are available at stations, and if needed, they immediately contact nearby hospitals and doctors. This is why, even with fewer medical stores, the Railway department tries to take full care of passengers’ health needs.
