On Monday, after the Hindu prophets opposed their clothing, the saffron uniforms of the service staff on the Ramayana Express train of the Indian Railway Company changed. The Hindu prophet of Ujjain described the saffron uniforms of the Ramayana Express staff as an insult to Hinduism. According to a report from IE, they also threatened that if they did not change their uniforms, they would block Delhi trains on December 12. The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC), which operates the Ramayana Express, said in a statement that the dress code of the service staff has been completely changed to the professional dress of the service staff. The company added that we apologize for any inconvenience caused.

According to reports, the uniforms of the Ramayana Express service staff have been changed to shirts, pants and traditional headwear. However, the waiter will wear a saffron mask and gloves. Avdeshpuri, the former general secretary of Ujjain Akhada Parishad, was quoted in the report as wearing a saffron costume, wearing a sadhu-like headdress, and wearing rudraksha malas, which is an insult to Hinduism and its seers. He said that if the waiter’s saffron dress code does not change, the Prophet will stop the train at Safdarjung Railway Station in Delhi.

On November 7, 2021, the first Ramayana ring train departed from Safdarjung Railway Station in Delhi, with as many as 132 tourists on board.
