In a highly unusual development, a video circulating on social media shows a first-class AC coach of the Indian Railways being used for purposes beyond that of a regular railway compartment.

A video is going viral on X showing an Indian Railways First Class AC coach converted into a bridal suite for a couple, with the compartment decorated using ambient lighting, balloons and rose petals scattered on the bed to resemble a 'honey moon night' setting.

Many internet users are sharing the video out of curiosity; some see it as a good opportunity for the railways to boost their revenue, while others are tagging the Railway Ministry and the Union Minister for Railways, seeking clarification on whether this is permitted by Indian Railways.

The details related to exact train name and coach number aren't widely known. Similarly, it is not yet confirmed who decorated the compartment of the coach.

Decorating train coaches isn't officially allowed and can lead to penalisation, though private bookings give more privacy for couples.
