New Delhi: The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) has dispatched almost 2 crore emails to its customers from December 8-12 mentioning 13 decisions made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to support the Sikh Community amid farmers’ agitation protesting Centre’s controversial farm laws.
The railway PSU emailed a 47-page booklet to its customers. “PM Modi and his government’s special relationship with Sikh” — as part of the government’s “public interest” outreach to make people aware of the bills and also to squash myths about them,” officials were quoted as saying news agency PTI.
