IRCTC Circular Journey Ticket: Railway travel is not only considered economical but it is also one of the most convenient and available modes of transport. And if you have a confirmed ticket, then what to say. Because having a confirmed ticket not only allows you to travel without any worries but also allows you to enjoy the journey.
But can you imagine that you can travel in 8 different trains on a single ticket? And that too for a total of 56 days. You too are unaware of this service of Indian Railways, right? We are talking about the circular journey ticket. This is a facility that very few people know about and even fewer people take advantage of it.
A special ticket called Circular Journey Ticket is issued by the Railways. This ticket is usually for pilgrims and tourists. During this, you can travel by train from 8 different stations simultaneously. Another special thing about this ticket is that it can be booked for travel in any class.
With a circular ticket, you can end your journey from where you started. Suppose you take a circular ticket from New Delhi and you want to tour the Golden Triangle, then you can go from New Delhi to Jaipur, Jaipur to Agra, Agra and come back to Delhi. However, you cannot buy this ticket directly from the counter. You have to apply for it in advance.
While applying, you have to tell the concerned railway officials about your entire travel route. Talking about the fare of this ticket, telescopic rates are applicable on it, which makes it much lower than the point-to-point fare.
