If you want to book railway tickets in India, you will have to login to www.irctc.co.in. Millions of people didn't use this website due to coronavirus restrictions in 2020. IRCTC's website has over 30 million users out of which four million users haven't verified their accounts, which is mandatory for booking tickets on the website.
The rules were notified during the coronavirus pandemic. Many people didn't know about the new rules. Now 40 lakh users haven't verified their IRCTC account. Here's what the rules say.
Per the rule, the mobile phone and email identity of all users must be verified before booking tickets online. This rule will apply to those who haven't booked their tickets online since the coronavirus pandemic hit Indian shores.
