Indian Railways is the fourth largest rail network in the world. Through the railway, millions of people travel from one place to another every day. Because the railway ticket is very cheap and comfortable. However, many times people are not able to get rid of festivals and weather. But today we will tell you about one such scheme of Railways, which increases the chances of getting confirmed tickets.
Indian Railways is the lifeline of the country. Because every day millions of people travel from one place to another through the railways. But the biggest complaint of passengers from the railway is that they cannot get confirmed tickets. But today we will tell you about such a scheme, which increases the chances of getting confirmed tickets.
Under the option scheme, seats are provided in alternative trains to provide confirmed seats to passengers with waiting tickets and to ensure maximum use of available seats. The scheme is applicable since 2016 and is available at all railway stations across the country. Under this scheme, passengers with waiting tickets can get confirmed seats in an alternative train. In the financial year 2023-24, more than 57,200 passengers have been provided seats in another alternative train under the ‘Option’ scheme.
Explain that the passenger with waiting tickets can opt for an alternative train for your journey under the option scheme. For this, they have to give some additional information during ticket booking, if seats are available in other trains, then they get a confirmed seat. This helps passengers to complete their journey with certainty.
There is a very useful initiative for passengers under the Railway Option Scheme. This scheme helps passengers to make their journey more convenient and enjoyable. This scheme gives passengers more options for their travel and increases the chances of getting a confirmed seat. Railways also benefit from this scheme. Because this leads to maximum use of vacant seats and increases the revenue of the railway.
