Konkan Railway Corporation provided ample proof of its sincerity and honesty, when a passenger who had forgotten his gold ornaments and cash inside a train got them back. The bag in which these items were kept also contained some important documents belonging to the passenger.

Venkatesh Shetty, a resident of Mulki, had arrived at the Mulki railway station from Mumbai by the Matsyagandha express train on Monday. While alighting from the train at Mulki station, he forgot to pick up his bag containing a 12-gram gold bangle, ₹25,300 in cash and some important documents. After some time, he realized his mistake and contacted the station master, who conveyed this information to the ticket examiner, Babu, who was in the train. Babu conducted a search and soon found the bag, which he then promptly handed over to the office of the regional traffic manager. After verification, the officials then handed over the bag to Venkatesh Shetty, who was greatly relieved and lauded the Konkan Railway employees for their honesty help and service to the public.
