Indian Railways, as part of relaxing the restriction on ticket booking is gearing up to open reservation counters for booking of tickets in a phased manner.
Zonal Railways have been instructed to decide and notify the opening of reservation counters as per local needs and conditions.
These reservation counters commence operations from tomorrow which includes booking of Reservation Tickets through the Common Service Centers and Ticketing agents.
It may be noted that running of Shramik Special trains will continue to be handled by local State Governments as per the existing protocols.
Opening of all these booking facilities once again will mark an important step in the graded restoration of passenger railway services and making the task of ticket booking easy for all prospective travelers from all parts of India in reserved trains.
Zonal railways may adhere to standard social distancing guidelines and observe the hygiene protocols in view of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
