Now, cubicles to breastfeed infants at railway stations


New Delhi, Jul 3 (PTI) Nursing mothers undertaking a train journey will now be able to breastfeed away from prying eyes with over 100 major railway stations across the country being equipped with "baby feeding corners". The move follows a letter from Women and Child Development (WCD) Ministry, headed by Maneka Gandhi, in April to the Railway Ministry seeking feeding-friendly spaces at railway stations. "The corner is provided with a small table and a chair with appropriate partition/ screen around it," the letter said. As on date, more than 100 waiting halls have been provided with this facility, as per the communication. PTI JC IKA ZMN IKA
