New Delhi:
In an attempt to facilitate travel of bonafide passengers and
reduce misuse of ticketing system, the railways Thursday decided
to extend the condition of carrying original proof of identity
during travel on reserved tickets for all classes in a train.
The change will come into effect from Dec 1, said a statement from
the ministry.
At present, only passengers travelling on e-tickets, Tatkal
tickets and in air-conditioned class have to produce original
proof of identity during the journey.
Further, the ministry also decided to expand the list of
prescribed proofs of identity to include photo identity cards
having serial numbers issued by public sector undertakings of
state/central government, district administration, municipal
administration and panchayat administration.
