If you are traveling by train, then you must know that you cannot use a loudspeaker on your mobile at night. Whether you are talking to someone on a call or listening to songs etc. If you do this, then other passengers may get disturbed and appropriate action can be taken against you if there is a complaint.
Do not carry these things

This list includes smelly items, gas cylinders, cigarettes, stoves, flammable substances, explosive substances, etc. If you are caught carrying these on the train, then action can be taken against you.
What to do if you miss the train
Suppose your train is from New Delhi Railway Station and for some reason, you are unable to board the train, then in such a case, you have the option of boarding your train from the next two stations. Railways provide you with this facility.
