Passengers will now be able to book railway tickets even on
Sunday afternoons till night. Three counters have been set up to provide
computerised reservations from 2 pm to 10 pm.
This pilot project was inaugurated at the Pune railway
station on Sunday. Divisional Railway Manager ( Pune) Vishal Agarwal
inaugurated the project.
"Earlier, reservation counters used to be closed on Sunday afternoons for regular system maintenance. Now, the system will be available even on Sunday afternoons. We want to provide people with good service and hence three counters -- 28, 29 and 30 -- will now be functional every Sunday from 2 pm to 10 pm," Agarwal said.
The first passenger to book a rail ticket using this
facility on Sunday was Haribhau Tingade.
He said, "Last Sunday no such facility was available
and so I couldn't book a ticket to Mumbai. I came to book it on Tuesday but I
did not get a confirmed booking. I had to rush to Mumbai for some important
work."
