The coronavirus pandemic has put a monumental strain on India's healthcare system, which was never at par with the infrastructure of developed countries. Faced with a crisis, the government is looking at temporary solutions and turning railway coaches into isolation wards is one of them. With cases doubling every 4.1 days, these coaches haven't been enough, hence, the government wants Railways to build more.
