After finding laboratory samples of the lime juice at Kurla station that had been sent for testing "unsafe for human consumption", the Central Railway on Friday imposed a fine of Rs 5 lakh on the stall operator at Kurla.

"We are committed to providing the best services under hygienic conditions to our commuters and any deviation will be dealt with severely," Central Railway chief spokesperson Sunil Udasi said. The contractor operates several stalls across the division.
