Special guidelines have been issued for wearing masks of people at railway stations. Fines for not wearing masks in the railway premises or inside the train will be fined up to Rs 500. The provision of fines is not just about masks, but also about spitting or spreading dirt here and there. You can be fined up to 500 rupees even if you spit here or there inside the railway station or train or you spread dirt.
