Vande Bharat Express has caught the internet’s attention over the quality of the food being served. A passenger travelling in Vande Bharat from Dehradun to Anand Vihar shared a picture of fungus-infested curd on X (formerly Twitter), which was served to him with his meal on the train. Taking to his X handle, the passenger named Harshad Topkar shared three pictures of his meal. In the pictures, we can see a packed juice box kept next to half-eaten poori, ketchup sachets and a few packed dishes. The picture shows a tub of mango-flavoured yoghurt with a greenish-white lump sitting on top of it. Along with the pictures, the user wrote, “Travelling to Vande Bharat from Dehradun to Anand Vihar in the executive class today. Found a greenish layer most probably fungus in the Amul yoghurt served. This is not expected from the Vande Bharat service.”

IRCTC wrote, “Sir, our sincere apology for the inconvenience caused. The matter was immediately attended to by the onboard supervisor who replaced the curd immediately.

This isn’t the first time that Vande Bharat has made headlines over its quality of food. Earlier in January this year, a passenger named Akash Keshari shared a video and a picture from inside the Vande Bharat travelling from New Delhi to Varanasi. The video posted on X showed the passengers asking the train staff to take away the meal tray, as the food served to them was stale. Akash, disappointed over the quality of the food, shared a note and asked for a return. The text along with the video and the picture read, “Hi sir I am on a journey with 22416 from NDLS to BSB. The food that was served now is smelling and very poor food quality. Kindly refund all my money… These vendors are spoiling the brand name of Vande Bharat Express.”
