Circle Recommendation Implemented
As part of one of the whitepapers from this circle, it was shared that touts were using common Indian first names to book railway tickets and reselling them and this should be discontinued
It is our pleasure to share that Short name, initials or incomplete name will not be allowed any more in the Indian Railways' Passenger Reservation System.
To make travel on trains more secure and preempt the untoward elements from seeking reservation on fake names, the Railway board has decided to strictly allow confirmed booking on the Passenger Reservation System on the basis of full expanded name.
The Railways board has directed all the zones to follow the norm, which is expected to be made mandatory at all the stations and ticket booking centers soon.
If you have other suggestions on how to make railway reservation process even more robust and foul proof, do share your inputs! more
