“Chai-Chai-Chai Garam!”, a familiar cry for anyone who’s travelled by train in India. Tea isn’t just a beverage here; it’s an emotion. But wait a moment, have you ever wondered where and how those kettles are cleaned?
A viral video has left tea lovers shocked. In the clip, a man is seen washing a kettle in a train toilet using the same plastic mug typically used for washing hands or worse, after using the toilet.
The video, now spreading like wildfire online, shows a tea vendor entering the train toilet with the kettle. Instead of using a proper sink or a dedicated tap, he begins washing the kettle with the same mug used for personal hygiene. The unsettling act has raised serious concerns about hygiene and public health, delivering a harsh reality check to passengers who expect even basic cleanliness.

The video was shared from an account named @BhanuNand and has already garnered hundreds of thousands of views. Social media reactions are intense.
