Weddings at railway stations! Prabhu comes up with unique idea

Instead of changing platforms, you may soon be able to exchange wedding vows at railway stations. The railways are weighing a proposal to rent out less-busy stations for holding wedding functions and other events .

The idea was mooted during the Rail Vikas Shivir held last month near New Delhi, when PM Modi urged officials to generate innovative yet practical ideas in the most crucial areas of rail operations and chart out a roadmap for progress.

Alok Ranjan, adviser, Railway Board, told TOI that a final decision was yet to be taken.
