Waiting Ticket Rule: Railway's new rule regarding waiting ticket, now TT will drop you mid-way if you make a mistake, and will also impose a fine of hundreds

Waiting Ticket Rule: A large number of people travel in Indian Railways every day. Many of these passengers have waiting tickets, yet they somehow complete their journey by standing to reach their destination. The problems of such people are going to increase now, because the Railways has now completely banned traveling in reserved coaches on waiting tickets.

Indian Railway: Indian Railways has made a big change related to passengers. This will affect millions of rail passengers. Railways has implemented these rules from July 1 and for the first time such a strict decision has been taken regarding waiting tickets. Railways has said that if a passenger breaks this new rule, not only will he be penalized, but the TT will also make him get off midway. For this, strict orders have also been given to the railway employees who check tickets in the train.

In fact, Railways has now completely banned traveling in reservation coaches on waiting tickets. This means that if your ticket remains waiting, then you cannot travel in AC or sleeper coach. Even if you have bought the ticket offline from the station window. Railways has now banned traveling in reserved coaches on this type of ticket as well. Although this decision has been implemented for the convenience of those traveling with confirmed tickets in reserved coaches, it will have a big impact on lakhs of passengers traveling on waiting tickets.

What was the rule till now

Till July, the rule of Indian Railways was that if a passenger has bought a waiting ticket from the station window, then he can travel in reserved coaches as well. If he has a waiting ticket for AC, then he can travel in AC and if he has a waiting ticket for sleeper, then he can travel in sleeper coach on a waiting ticket. However, there is already a ban on traveling on tickets purchased online, because if the online ticket remains waiting, then it gets cancelled automatically.

What does the railway say

Railway officials say that the ban on traveling on waiting tickets is not from today but from the British era, but it is not being strictly followed. Now the railway has instructed to strictly follow this rule. The railway has a clear rule that if you have bought a ticket from the window and it remains waiting, then cancel it and get the money back. Instead of doing this, passengers board the coach to travel.

How much will be the fine?

Railways has said in its order that if any passenger with a waiting ticket is found travelling in reserved coaches, then the TT can impose a fine of Rs 440 on him and can make him get off the train on the way. Apart from this, the TT will also have the right to send the passenger to the general coach. Railways has given this order after the complaint of about 5 thousand passengers, in which the passengers had said that there is a lot of inconvenience due to the increasing crowd of people with waiting tickets in reserved coaches. After this, the Railways has instructed to strictly follow this rule.
