A Travelling Ticket Examiner (TTE) 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, a South Central Railway (SCR) official said on Wednesday.
A couple travelling in a First AC coupe had hired a decorator through an online arrangement to adorn their compartment during the journey on July 6, according to an official release.
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 concerned ticket checker 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. -- PTI
