Railways has made a new rule regarding changing seats, now heavy fine will be imposed.
If you travel by train or plan to travel in the coming days, be careful. The Railways have tightened the rules regarding seat exchanges. If you exchange seats with another passenger, you could face a fine.
Train Seat Rules: It’s common to change seats to sit with family or friends while traveling by train. But this simple gesture can sometimes lead to trouble. If you move to a reserved seat without permission, you could face a fine, according to railway rules.
When traveling with family or friends, people often change seats to sit next to each other. While changing seats after talking to each other is one thing, it’s not right to voluntarily move to another vacant or reserved seat. If you need to move to a different seat or coach, you should speak to the train’s TTE.
The TTE can change the seat.
If a berth is vacant on the train or a passenger needs a different seat, the TTE can change the seat according to railway rules. Therefore, it’s better to seek permission from the TTE rather than changing the seat yourself. This can avoid problems like conflicts with other passengers and fines.
Leaving your fixed seat and sitting in another passenger’s reserved seat without permission can be costly. According to railway rules, such a passenger can be fined. Therefore, changing seats for a temporary convenience can be costly.
A confirmed ticket cannot be given to anyone else.
Selling or giving a confirmed railway ticket to another person is also against the rules. Selling a reserved ticket without the railway’s permission can lead to action, including a fine and even imprisonment.
Many passengers try to travel on a train even after the chart is prepared if their waiting list tickets are not confirmed. Railway officials can take action against those traveling on reserved trains without a confirmed ticket. Passengers can be fined and charged extra fare.
