The South Eastern Central Railway (SECR) has moved one step ahead in providing maximum sanitation to passengers by installing 1,400 bio-toilets in 375 coaches in 13 trains in the Raipur Railway Division, it was announced on Monday.
The 13 trains include Durg-Jammu Tawi, Durg-Ajmer, Durg-Rajendra Nagar, Durg-Ambikapur and Durg-Kanpur.
The bio-toilets, which replace traditional toilets on trains, convert the stored human excreta into usable dust powder with bacteria culture technology. The bio-toilets help in waste management and to keep the tracks as well as train toilets clean, the SECR said.
