Sanitary pads dispensers and incinerators installed by Western Railway for female staff
Western Railway Women's Welfare Organisation (WRWWO) has installed Sanitary pads dispensers and incinerators for female staff at all its major offices, a senior official said here on Wednesday. The machines have been donated by the WRWWO in a unique initiative for clean India and green India other than to uplift women health and hygiene. The first coin-operated machines was inaugurated at the Western Railway (WR) headquarters at Churchgate, and all the Divisional Headquarters at Mumbai Central (Maharashtra), Vadodara, Ahmedabad, Rajkot, Bhavnagar (Gujarat) and Ratlam (Madhya Pradesh). Ravinder Bhakar, WR Chief PRO said, "These incinerators will not only ensure quick disposal of used napkins but also contribute to maintain proper hygiene levels among the women employees." As you insert the used napkin in the chamber provided and switching on, it will automatically attain the requisite temperature and convert it into ashes and control the ill-effects of conventional or casual modes of disposal. At the inauguration by WRWWO President Archana Gupta, a demonstration was conducted on the ease of operating the machines. Women employees must take full advantage of the machines installed in order to keep menstrual hygiene and maintain a greener India. Archana Gupta urged women staff to make full use of the machine. -PTC News
