Railways restrict booking of train e-tickets on a single login
The Ministry of Railways on Monday decided to restrict the
number of tickets that an individual can book via the e-ticketing platform, in
a single login session.
"In case of
e-ticketing, there will be a restriction of only one booking in one user login
session and forced logging out of the user before another booking for all users
including IRCTC agents but excluding defence booking under warrant only," a
Ministry of Railways release said.
However, this
restriction will be applicable only while booking of e-ticket between 0800 and
1200 hours. It will also not be applicable while booking onward journey/return
journey e-tickets, the release said.
The Ministry of
Railways has also decided to upwardly revise the rate of platform ticket to Rs
10/- per ticket from Rs 5/- per ticket. The revised rate of platform ticket
will be charged on platform ticket to be issued from 01.04.2015.
"Directions have
been sent to All Zonal Railways to print the revised tickets on top priority
and ensure supply to all stations well in time. However, till such time the
tickets are printed, the existing stock of tickets may be used with the rate
corrected with a stamp. Wherever platform tickets are issued through SPTM &
UTS or other machines, their software may to be modified to collect the revised
rate," a separate press release said.
Further, the Ministry of Railways has delegated the power to Divisional Railway Managers (DRMs) to increase the rate of platform tickets beyond Rs 10/- to regulate rush at platforms during specific requirements like mela, rally etc.
