March 25, New Delhi – Indian Railways is transforming railway stations into hubs for local craftsmanship through the One Station One Product (OSOP) initiative. Launched in the Union Budget 2022–23, OSOP aims to promote indigenous products, provide market access to local artisans and Self-Help Groups (SHGs), generate sustainable livelihoods, and showcase regional diversity.
As of January 19, 2026, over 2,000 railway stations host around 2,326 OSOP outlets, benefiting more than 1.32 lakh individuals and connecting local producers with millions of passengers. Launched on March 25, 2022, the initiative began with a 15-day pilot across 19 stations and has since expanded nationwide, with stalls allocated on a rotational basis at nominal fees to ensure wider participation. Railway divisions implement the scheme in coordination with state agencies, SHGs, and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
The products on display reflect the unique identity of each region. Tenkasi Junction in Tamil Nadu features cane products highlighting local craftsmanship, while Patna Railway Station showcases the world-famous Madhubani paintings, giving artists a platform to reach a larger audience. OSOP prioritizes artisans, weavers, farmers, and women-led SHGs, particularly those with limited access to formal markets, helping grassroots communities sustain traditional livelihoods while reaching more customers.
