Fourteen passengers on board the Puri-Howrah Shatabdi Express had to be hospitalised in Kharagpur after at least 40 of them fell ill after eating breakfast served on board Wednesday morning. Railway authorities said an inquiry will be conducted as the incident put the spotlight on hygiene. The affected passengers were travelling in coach numbers C1 and C2. Breakfast was served after 7 am. When the train reached Kharagpur at 11.45 am, the passengers were taken to the railway hospital after they complained of abdominal pain and vomiting.“The food was supplied by IRCTC and it was loaded on the train at Puri. Some passengers fell ill after eating it. They are being treated at Kharagpur. Inquires will be conducted by us as well as IRCTC,” said Sanjoy Ghosh, chief public relations officer, South Eastern Railway.
