Whenever you go out of your home, you must be using different types of vehicles. One of these can also be an Indian train because daily a large number of passengers travel by train and reach their destination. However, due to the rush, you have to book train tickets online or offline a few days before the journey. But have you ever thought that what will you do if you lose your offline ticket? Will you be able to travel by train in this situation? Maybe you do not know about this, but you can know about it here because there is a rule of Indian Railways regarding this. So let's know how you can travel in this situation...
Know the rules
If you lose your train ticket, you can still travel by train. Yes, don't worry because Indian Railways has a rule regarding this which allows the passenger to travel even after missing the train ticket.
What will need to be done?
If your train ticket is lost during the journey, all you have to do is get a new ticket made from the TTE with a fine of just Rs 50. If you do not do this, then you may be fined more under the rules of the railway for the offense of traveling without a ticket.
Report the problem to TTE
You have to inform the TTE present on the train that your ticket has been lost. After this TTE issues you a new ticket. Then you can complete your journey sitting in the same seat.
Not only this, you can also change your destination station while booking a new ticket. In such a situation, there may be a difference in the fare of your journey i.e. it may be more or less.
