SC tells Railways: Calling travellers 'second-class' goes against Constitutional values

The court stated that class labels should only identify the specific coach a passenger is in, rather than labeling the individual themselves. These remarks were made during the hearing of a compensation plea filed by a widow whose husband passed away after falling from a train in motion.
