Railway General Ticket Rule Changed: Crores of people travel by train every day in India. Some of them travel in reserved coaches. While some people travel in unreserved coaches.

Will there be any changes in general tickets?
A few days ago, due to the huge crowd of passengers, a stampede-like situation had arisen at the New Delhi Railway Station. 18 people lost their lives in this accident. Now the accident is being investigated. But in the meantime, news is also coming that now the rules will be changed by the Railways for those traveling with general tickets.
