The Railway Ministry has enhanced the limit on passengers' waiting list from 25 per cent to 60 per cent for all AC classes and 30 per cent for non-AC classes by a fresh order issued on Saturday.

NEW DELHI:
The order to cap the waiting list of passengers of all classes at 25 per cent was originally issued on April 17 to all zones as well as the Centre for Railway Information System (CRIS).
The CRIS amended the reservation system and implemented it from June 16.
"Just 12 days after implementing the order to cap all waiting lists at 25 per cent of the total seats/berths of travelling classes, the ministry realised its mistake and almost reversed its decision," said a senior ministry official requesting anonymity.
