Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar | A Travelling Ticket Examiner has been suspended for allegedly allowing an unauthorised decorator to enter a First AC coach of Nandigram Express and decorate a coupe for a couple, the South Central Railway has said.

A couple travelling in a First AC coupe had hired a decorator through an online platform to adorn their compartment during the journey on July 6, SCR said in an official release on Wednesday.

A video of the decorated coach has gone viral.

The railway official said the decorator's entry into the coach was unauthorised, which was a serious lapse.

The ticket checker concerned has been suspended, and a departmental inquiry has been initiated, the release said.

Appropriate disciplinary action would be initiated against those found responsible based on the inquiry, it added.
