In order to ensure hassle-free, comfortable travel & better services to all
bonafide passengers and to deter ticketless travelling, special ticket checking
drives are carried out at frequent intervals over Western Railway (WR), in addition to the
regular intensive ticket checking drives, especially in the Mumbai suburban section.
In this direction, a two-day special ticket checking drive was conducted in AC
local trains on August 23-24, 2024.
According to an official statement released by Vineet Abhishek, Chief Public
Relations Officer, Western Railway, the ticket checking staff of WR in
collaboration with RPF staff carried out a two-day Special Ticket Checking Drive in AC
local train services.
During the check on both the days, a total of 1,273 passengers were
found traveling in unauthorised manner. More than INR 4 lakhs were recovered as
fines, where 595 passengers on the first day and 678 passengers on the second day
were penalised.
The special drive was carried during morning and evening peak
hours where people think they can get away without a valid ticket among the crowd.
Western Railway appeals all esteemed commuters to travel with a proper and
valid ticket, which can be procured through the ticket booking counters or ATVM
machines or can be purchased online through UTS App.
