New Delhi: Indian Railways has been working towards beautification of Railway Stations as well as trains. Railway Stations are being beautified with wall painting and beautiful murals. Aside from painting, Railways is also looking to modernise railway stations and is planning to incorporate state-of-the-art features and services to match airports.

Earlier this year, 22 coaches of the Patna Rajdhani express got decorated with the traditional Madhubani paintings inside and outside the coaches. Over 225 artists painted Madhubani station for free this year and the station won an award for that as well.

Take a look at the stations after beautification
