Railways to decriminalise begging and smoking in trains; penalties to be imposed

“This doesn’t mean that railways will allow or encourage begging at stations and in trains. Decriminalisation doesn’t mean it will be legalised. Surveillance by RPF and other staff will be increased to prevent such activities,” said a ministry official. Smoking in public places, including railway stations, is already banned in several states.
