Aarogya Setu App is Mandatory For All Rail Passengers: Must Have App Installed Before Boarding Train
Tuesday, May 12, 2020 IST
The Aarogya Setu app was made mandatory after a Union Ministry of Home Affairs missive, following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's meeting with chief ministers.
The Indian Railways, which had on Monday "advised" the passengers availing the special trains that started operating on Tuesday to install the government's Aarogya Setu mobile application, has now made it "mandatory" to do so. While the guidelines issued by the railways for the 15 pairs of special trains running between Delhi and major cities of the country did not say installing the mobile app was mandatory, a late night (12:24 am) tweet by the railway ministry made it compulsory.
"Indian Railways is going to start few passenger train services. It is mandatory for passengers to download Aarogya Setu app in their mobile phones, before commencing their journey," the tweet said. Sources said it was made mandatory after a Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) missive, following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's meeting with chief ministers. Passengers, who do not have the app installed on their mobile phones, might be asked to do so after their arrival at the station, they added.
