Recently, we read about the best exercises for parents and children. Exercise is important for everyone.

But did you know that exercise can also earn you a free ticket at the railway station?

The Indian Railways has installed a squat machine which will generate a free platform ticket.

• The machine is currently installed at the Anand Vihar Railway station in Delhi.
• One can get a free platform ticket by doing 30 squats (exercise) in 180 seconds in front of the machine.
• Union Railway Minister Piyush Goyal also posted a video clip of young man doing squats on Twitter.
• The video has received thousands of views and hundreds of comments so far.

Indian Railways took this step to promote the ‘Fit India’ initiative of the government, which aims is to encourage and motivate people to stay fit.
