Taking to the ‘Kolkata’ subreddit, the user shared their unsettling ordeal: “I had a pretty disturbing experience a few months back at Howrah Station.

“I couldn’t believe my eyes at first, but it was definitely a rat, just sitting there. I immediately informed the staff, but they seemed completely nonchalant about it. It felt like they knew it happens on a daily basis and weren’t really bothered,” the OP recounted. “This incident really put me off from buying anything from there. I understand that maintaining hygiene in such busy places can be challenging, but this was just unacceptable,” they added, expressing their disillusionment with the hygiene standards.

The post quickly gained traction, sparking outrage and calls for action from fellow Redditors. “You need to lodge a complaint, brother! This is totally unacceptable” urged one commenter. Another cautioned, “Railway food should always be a big no no unless it’s packaged like cakes and biscuits .Including IRCTC foo.” A third advised, “Golden rule 1 – never ever buy anything to eat from a railway station,” while a fourth shared a cautionary tale about avoiding certain counters after falling ill.
