#Bhubaneswar #Puri
Can anyone please help me in traversing from BBI (Airport) to Puri.
State Transport like Mo Bus or Train like Dhauli Express, which one would be easy to navigate and reach Puri. Considering the fact, I will be traveling with family, I am unable to plan hassle free journey between BBS and PURI. R, Mahesh

There is a big scam going in indian #railways,there is an #irctc policy for catering in #railways ,is of NO Bill No PAY ,which completely says clearly ,if you are not provided bill ,you do not pay,

demanded the bill,they are issuing manual bill , with not #gst breakup,they do not have menu card ,showing MRP of food items plus quantity of food mentioned
This was my experience on #dhauli express from Howrah to puri
Tagged #piyushgoyal #primeminister #indianrailways #irctc
Recently #irctc came out with an ipo ,which was over subscribed ,has to come out with government monopoly and has to be directly report to #consumer of #indianrailways
The tea served is Rs 7 in the menu ,but they are charging Rs 10 in actual,and they intentionally do not carry menu cardThis a big scam ,happening under our nose.
See trailer of Privatisation of IR going on for yrs but IRCTC cannot control. Picture toh abhi baki hai mere dost.
