PRAYAGRAJ In a bid to simplify the complex procedure of changing name(s) on a reserved train ticket, the Northern Railways (NR) has made some key changes and relaxed a few rules.
Now, at almost every station of NR — which includes major stations like Prayagraj Sangam and many smaller stations like Phaphamau and Phulpur in Prayagraj under its jurisdiction — railway officials have been authorised to take applications, check necessary documents, and change the name on the journey ticket.
However, there will be several checks and balances that would be followed to see to it that touts and middleman do not take benefit from these relaxations, said officials.
