Apr 14: Now onwards, the Railway Department has clarified that passengers are no longer required to fill in the address of the place where they want to go when booking a ticket. The IRCTC website has made it mandatory to fill in the destination address in the app when booking train tickets due to the corona virus Pandemic. There was a situation where the ticket could not be booked without filling it. People were in serious trouble with this.
However, with the decision taken by Indian Railways now, passengers will be relieved of this.
At a time when the spread of corona in the country is soaring, all government departments have taken strict preventive measures to control it.
As part of this, the Railway Department has also taken a key decision to curb the spread of corona. In order to track Covid positive cases during Corona outbreak. Indian Railways has announced that passenger destination details must be entered. That provision has continued till now.
Recently that provision has been removed. The Railway Department said the decision was taken as the spread of Covid was currently declining. It is learned that pillow-blanket services on trains have been suspended as part of the Covid sanctions. Recently that service was also re-launched. Pillows and blankets are provided on trains to help you sleep comforts at night travels.
