The civil aviation ministry has reported that a total of 312 feeding and changing rooms have been set up at various airports, including 164 under the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and 148 at non-AAI airports.

Similarly, MoRTH has informed that feeding rooms have been installed at 26 bus stations in Telangana, two in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu and 50 in Uttar Pradesh. Other states and Union Territories, including Delhi, Goa, Chandigarh and Meghalaya, have also reported progress in this regard.

In a related move, the women and child development ministry has issued an advisory to all ministries and state governments urging them to create gender-friendly spaces in public offices and workplaces to support working women.

The advisory includes measures such as installing sanitary pad vending machines and incinerators in washrooms, allocating space for feeding rooms, restrooms and yoga rooms, and setting up crèche facilities in public buildings with 50 or more employees.

Minister of State for Women and Child Development Savitri Thakur shared these details in the Rajya Sabha while responding to a question on Wednesday.
