IRCTC has approached two lower courts alleging that online food ordering services provided by these companies are illegal.
- Amidst the ongoing tussle between RailYatri and Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) related to unauthorised ticket booking, the Indian railway catering arm has locked horns with RailYatri and TravelKhana over online food ordering services.
- This revelation comes after it was reported that RailYatri had applied for IRCTC license to continue its train ticket booking services.
- In 2017, IRCTC had filed a complaint alleging that the company was providing illegal bookings and meals on trains.
- The issue related to food delivery comes at a time when speculations are rife that IRCTC is planning to join hands with food delivery companies such as UberEats, Zomato, Foodpanda, and Swiggy to provide meals in trains.
