One Station One Product by Indian Railway Indian Railway launched One Station One Product scheme in Railway Stations as announced in the Union Budget 2022-23. It aims to make each railway station a promotional hub and showcase destination for a local product giving a major boost to local industry. The Concept of “One station one Product” has been announced by Union Government while presenting the recent budget (2022-23) in the Parliament. The main objective of the concept is to make each railway station a promotional hub and showcase destination for a local product, thereby giving a major boost to local industries by providing enhanced livelihood and welfare of local artisans, potters, weavers/handloom weavers, Tribals, etc. The stations will act as a marketing channel in the form of an earmarked stall through which the local product distinct to the particular area will be sold. The Railway Stations by their very nature of having huge footfalls are mass contact areas offering huge potential for marketing any product. Under this concept, earmarked space will be provided at the station platforms for setting up of stalls for marketing and promotion of local food items, handicrafts, artifacts, handlooms, local toys, leather products, garments, traditional appliances, instruments, processed / semi-processed food items etc, which are distinct to a particular area. Accordingly, Railway Board has advised to identify one station on each Zonal Railway for implementation of this novel concept, initially as a pilot project for a period of 15 days. As such, Tirupati Railway station on South Central Railways has been identified as the first station on the Zone for implementation of this “One station one Product” concept on pilot basis for a period of 15 days, starting from 25th of March 2022. Tirupati Railway station is the nearest alighting point to reach the world-famous Lord Balaji Temple and witnesses regular flow of rail passengers across all parts of the nation. The surrounding areas of the Tirupati station are famous for Kalamkari art and textiles. Accordingly, the station has been identified for promoting “Kalamkari Sarees and Textiles”. In addition, multiple products can also be showcased / sold at the station, if the products are indigenous to that area, such as Wood Crafting products, etc. Main Objectives : One Station One Product The Indian Railways has launched the 'One Station One Product' (OSOP) scheme with the aim of promoting the 'Vocal for Local' vision of the Government of India. The scheme seeks to provide a platform for local and indigenous products while also generating additional income opportunities for marginalized sections of society. Here are the key features of the OSOP scheme: Display Outlets: The railways will offer standardized design outlets, including fixed stalls/kiosks and portable stalls/trolleys at railway stations. These outlets will serve as showcases for selling and providing high visibility to indigenous/local products. Indigenous Products: The products featured in the OSOP scheme are indigenous or Geographical Indications (GI) tagged, representing the unique culture and heritage of the region. This product category may include artifacts, handicrafts, textiles, handlooms, toys, leather goods, traditional appliances/instruments, garments, gems, jewelry, and other locally made or grown food products. Empowering Marginalized Sections: The OSOP scheme aims to empower individuals at the bottom of the socioeconomic pyramid and marginalized communities. Artisans, weavers, craftsmen, tribes, and farmers are encouraged to participate, along with members of self-help groups, women's self-help groups, and those associated with registered micro-enterprises, social organizations, state government bodies, etc. Allotment Process: Interested participants can apply for the OSOP scheme, and allotment will be done on a rotational basis, ensuring fair distribution of opportunities. The allotted period for showcasing products can range from 15 days up to 3 months, and a nominal registration fee is required for participation. The 'One Station One Product' scheme serves as a crucial initiative by Indian Railways to support local artisans and communities, boost indigenous products, and contribute to the realization of the 'Vocal for Local' vision of the Government of India.
