The Railways have made it mandatory for even those travelling in sleeper class and second class reserved coaches, economy class and first class to carry identity proof, in an attempt to prevent the touts from getting the tickets and selling them at a premium.
This requirement has already been enforced for those travelling in air-conditioned coaches so that only genuine passengers undertook the journey.
Those travelling on Tatkal and e-tickets are also required to carry their IDs.
Approved IDs are -
- voter photo identity card
- driving licence
- PAN card
- Aadhaar number
- senior citizen card
- BPL card
- ESI card and
- student IDs
