Indian fitness drive sees machine give out free train tickets for 30 squats

Indian railways are giving out free tickets to anyone who can perform 30 squats within three minutes.

Footage filmed on Saturday (February 22nd) at Anand Vihar Station in New Delhi showed passengers doing the leg exercise in front of a machine which counts the number of reps before spitting out the "platform ticket" worth 10 rupees.

According to the filmer, the "squat kiosk" is part of a government fitness initiative called "Fit India." "Platform tickets" give passengers access to the train platforms but aren't valid for travel on their own.
