A passenger who will travel from Asansol Railway station said, "Everything is going good here and everyone has to follow guidelines and wear masks."

"We have alerted our railway staff also to check that COVID-19 guidelines are being adhered to and it is easy for us to check passengers as 98 per cent of them are already following guidelines," an Eastern railway official said.
