For more than fifty years after the formation of the Indian Railways, there was one crucial element that was missing on the nation’s trains: toilets.
Passengers had to wait till till the stations to answer the call of nature, and it was not until a passenger named Okhil Chandra Sen wrote this angry yet amusing letter in 1909 that toilets were installed on Indian trains.
