Utility News Desk !!! Indian Railways operates a large number of trains every day. While traveling by train you get comfortable seats, AC, catering facilities and toilet facilities. That is why people like to travel by train.
But if you are planning to travel by train during festivals then it seems a bit difficult. Because on festivals like Diwali and Chhath, people book train tickets in advance. But don’t worry because even if you do not have a confirmed train ticket, you can still travel by train according to the rules of the railways. Yes, so let’s know about this rule of the railways and how you can travel by train without a confirmed ticket.
Actually, to travel by train, you must have a confirmed ticket. According to a rule of Indian Railways, if you have a waiting ticket instead of a confirmed ticket, then you can travel in the train.
The only thing to note here is that the waiting ticket you have should be taken from the window, not the online waiting ticket. In such a situation, you must have understood that you can travel on the window waiting ticket and not on the online waiting ticket.
In such a situation, if you have taken a waiting train ticket from the window to go home on this Diwali or Chhath Puja, then even the TTE cannot stop you from traveling. At the same time, if any seat is left vacant in the train, then you can talk to the TTE and travel by sitting on that seat.
If you have booked a waiting list train ticket online then you cannot travel with it because it is not valid. But you can get it refunded. You can cancel it and get your money back.
