Indian Railways- Every day lakhs of passengers travel in Indian trains. Indian trains are one of the most convenient and economical options for travelling. For this reason, most people prefer to travel in Indian trains instead of travelling in any other means. It is often seen that many times passengers are not able to reach the station on time, due to which they miss their train. In this situation, many passengers often have a question whether they can travel in another train on the ticket of that train.
Many times people get upset in case of missing a train and in a hurry start travelling in another train on that ticket. In such a situation, if the train is missed, can one travel in another train on that ticket? It is important for you to know about the rules related to this. In case you miss a train, can you travel in another train on the same ticket? It depends on the category of your ticket. If your ticket is of general category, then in this case you can travel in another train of the same category.
Apart from this, if your ticket is of any other category train like Vande Bharat Express, Tejas etc. then if you miss that train, you cannot travel in any other train. On the other hand, if you have a confirmed reservation ticket, then even in this situation, if you miss the train, you cannot travel in another train. General tickets are not valid in premium trains like Vande Bharat, Tejas. If you are caught travelling in another train on your reservation ticket, the TTE can charge you a fine. If caught, you will have to pay the travel fare and penalty amount. If you refuse to pay it or misbehave with the TTE, action can be taken against you.
