Railway Deploys Robots To Sanitise Train Coaches Amid COVID-19

To make the train journey safe amid the coronavirus pandemic, the Northern Railways (NR) has deployed remote-controlled Ultraviolet-C disinfectant robots to sanitize the coaches. The robot approved by the Indian Council of Medical Research is said to be more effective than manual cleaning and provides 99.99% effectiveness. Lucknow has become the first city to adopt the robots and railways will also launch them soon for other trains.
