Waitlist Passengers to Get Confirmed Seats in Premier Trains From April 01,2017

Come April and a passenger can avail the opportunity of travelling in Rajdhani or Shatabdi trains even if he or she has booked tickets in other mail/express trains for the same destinations

Indian Railways is launching a new scheme from April 01,2017 under which waitlisted passengers can get confirmed accommodation in the next alternative train if they opt for the option while booking their tickets.

As per the scheme, there would be no extra charges taken from the passenger or any refund provided for the difference of fare

Known as 'Vikalp', the alternative train accommodation scheme aims to utilise vacant berths in many premier trains including Rajdhani, Shatabdi, Duronto and other special services such as Suvidha trains in all major routes.

Railways has to forgo about Rs 7,500 crore in a year in a refund to customers for cancellation of tickets for various reasons.

Describing the scheme as a "passenger friendly" move to provide confirmed accommodation to waitlisted passengers in alternative trains, a senior Railway Ministry official said, "We aim to achieve the twin objectives of providing confirmed accommodation to waitlisted passengers and ensure optimal utilisation of available accommodation by this scheme."

After the introduction of the flexi-fare system in premier trains, some berths are going vacant while at the same time many passengers could not be accommodated in other Mail/Express trains due to huge demand.

"In any case, these berths are running vacant. So whatever we can save in refund is going to be a neat save for us. No additional cost is involved to railways so anything we save will be earnings for railways," the official added.
