THE Ministry of Railways has announced an update to its online ticket booking system aimed at reducing fraudulent practices. From October 1, 2025, the first 15 minutes of general reserved ticket booking on the IRCTC website and app will be open only to Aadhaar-authenticated user IDs.

- RAJESH KUMAR THAKUR @New Delhi

In a circular to the Principal Chief Commercial Managers of all 17 railway zones and the Managing Director of CRIS in Delhi, the Ministry directed system modifications to implement the new rule. The Railways stated that this step is intended to ensure that the reservation system benefits genuine passengers and is not misused by touts who create fake user IDs.
