Rail passengers will have the benefit and alternative of availing bed-rolls while booking tickets for the Garib Rath train and pay the requisite charges at the booking counter itself.At present, these bed-rolls are supplied to the passengers on demand and charges are accumulated separately from them.


Related provision will also be made for passengers booking tickets through online by internet, a Railway notification said.
 
Of late, there were everyday complaints from passengers regarding supply of used bed-roll or incomplete set, surplus charges, non-issuance of receipt among others.

Apart from causing unhappiness among passengers, this also resulted in loss of revenue to the Railways.The provisions for provide of bed-rolls in Garib Rath trains shall be implemented on trial basis for a period of six months to evaluate the demand under the scheme.

Once the essential modifications in the Railways' software are made, all zonal railways will be intimated the date for the execution of the scheme.
