Dimapur: Nagaland’s Dimapur Railway Station under the Lumding Division of Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) has been awarded the prestigious “Eat Right Station” certification by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI).
The certification, valid from October 24, 2025, to October 23, 2027, recognises the station’s adherence to food safety, hygiene, and healthy food practices for passengers.
The recognition follows a comprehensive audit of food stalls, catering units, and food handlers at the station, ensuring compliance with strict standards for hygienic food preparation, safe storage, proper waste management, and availability of nutritious food options.
In a related development, four other stations under the Alipurduar Division of NFR have also received the certification. These include Alipurduar and New Mal Junction in West Bengal, along with Kokrajhar and Golakganj in Assam.
Railway officials, health inspectors, catering units, authorised vendors, and station management teams were credited for their coordinated efforts in maintaining high standards of cleanliness and food safety.
The “Eat Right Station” initiative is part of FSSAI’s nationwide “Eat Right India” campaign, aimed at promoting safe, healthy, and sustainable food practices. Northeast Frontier Railway said it remains committed to continuously improving passenger amenities and providing safe and hygienic food across its stations.
