Upon receiving the complaint, the DRM of Tinsukia Division, responsible for the maintenance and operational integrity of the Avadh Assam Express, promptly coordinated with the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) to levy a significant fine of Rs 15,000 against the licensee involved.

Furthermore, in a collaborative effort with the Railway Protection Force (RPF) of the East Central Railway, where the incident occurred, swift action was taken to identify and apprehend the contractual staff responsible for this misconduct. The pantry car employee in question has been arrested, and a case has been registered under the Railway Act to ensure accountability and deter such behaviour in the future.
