The boarding procedure from intermediate stations for passengers, who do not possess any waitlisted or reserved ticket, has been slightly modified with effect from 1st January, 2005, according to which such passengers will purchase the journey ticket for 11nd/Ist class depending upon the class in which they desire to travel instead of purchasing the platform ticket as earlier. There is no change in boarding procedure for those passengers who possess reserved/waitlisted tickets. These modifications were made in the administrative interest.
The above information was given by the Minister of State for Railways, Shri R. Velu, in a written reply in the Lok Sabha today.
