This is the whole matter

Regarding its new rule, the railways said that it is now mandatory for the railway police personnel to buy tickets during their journey. Suppose if the personnel want to travel for free, then they will have to take valid permission from their senior officers. Now just an identity card will not suffice.

This is the reason behind taking this decision

This decision was taken because recently a Gujarat RPF constable had demanded compensation from the railways due to an accident that happened during travel. He said that he had fallen in the train during duty, so he should be given compensation. The constable was travelling without a ticket. Due to this, the railways have now clarified the rules of travel.
