Or you can give this ticket to someone in need. Let us know about this special feature.
Special facility for railway passengers
Railway passengers often face the problem of not being able to travel after booking the ticket. In such a case, they either have to cancel the ticket or send someone else in their place to book a new ticket.
But then it is very difficult to get a confirmed ticket. That is why the railways have provided this facility to the passengers. Although this facility has been available for a long time, people know very little about it. We are going to tell you how you can take advantage of this facility of the railways.
Transfer tickets to family members
A passenger can transfer his confirmed ticket to any other member of his family i.e. father, mother, brother, sister, son, daughter, husband and wife. However, passengers can get the transfer done 24 hours before the train leaves. For this, the passenger has to give a requirement, after which the name of the passenger is removed from the ticket and the name of the member is put in whose name the ticket is to be transferred.
Application must be made 24 hours in advance
If the passenger is a government employee and is going on his duty then he can apply 24 hours before the train leaves, the ticket will be transferred to the name of the person for whom the request is made. If people going to a wedding face such a situation, then the organizer has to apply 48 hours in advance with the required documents. You can also avail this facility online. This facility is also available for NCC cadets. According to Indian Railways, the ticket can be transferred only once.
