While our leaders waste time on such cosmetic changes, city commuters battle the lack of adequate amenities or upgraded infrastructure at the very same station.

The authorities should peek into washrooms at various stations to get an idea about the dearth of basic hygiene. Cleanliness of snack stalls must also be reviewed. Check if spurious products are being sold, especially bottled water, and increase the number of trash cans on platforms. Segregating wet and dry waste may prove to be useful.

Why not spend time pondering upon upgrading facilities to make lives simpler for commuters? But who cares for development. Powers that be would rather focus on renaming iconic structures and brush all the inconvenience the masses face on a regular basis under the blanket of patriotism.
