Under Project Ayushman, South Western Railway rolls out a first-of-its-kind nursing room facility at Mysuru Railway station - bringing dignity, comfort, and privacy to traveling mothers.
In a heartening move that blends comfort with compassion, Indian Railways has unveiled a dedicated nursing room at Platform 2 of the historic Mysuru Railway Station — offering a quiet, hygienic, and secure space for nursing mothers and infants. This passenger-friendly facility has been launched under the “Project Ayushman”, in collaboration with Ladies Circle India, as part of Indian Railways’ ongoing mission to make travel more inclusive, thoughtful, and humane.
Traveling with infants — especially during long layovers, late-night connections, or festival rush — can be exhausting for mothers. Until now, many were left without private spaces for nursing or baby care.
This newly inaugurated nursing room:
• Offers privacy and dignity for mothers
• Is air-conditioned and well-lit
• Maintains high cleanliness standards
• Provides a safe space away from crowded platforms
By combining comfort with care, the Indian Railways is raising the bar for what passengers can expect from modern-day rail travel.
