Keeping in mind the facilities of the railway passengers, the Indian Railways has made major changes in the rules of ticket reservation. Now the second chart of ticket reservations on trains will be released half an hour before the train leaves the station.
This decision of the railway has been taken at the request of its zonal railways. The purpose of releasing the second chart is to close the ticket book online or from the ticket window on the vacant seats in the earlier reservation chart. Apparently, this will provide an opportunity to the waiting list passengers till the last moment. At the same time, arbitrary TTE will also end on the train. Many more changes are expected in the operation of trains.
On 11 May 2020, in view of the Corona crisis epidemic, the railways had changed the timing of the second chart, with the chart being prepared 2 hours before the train missed. But now after the relaxation of unlocked 5.0 new guidelines, the chart will be released again 30 minutes before, this rule of the railway will come into effect from October 10.
