IRCTC Account: If you book train tickets online, then this news is very important for you. Indian Railways (IRCTC) has blocked more than 2 crore suspicious accounts with the help of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Along with this, more than 20 lakh accounts are still under investigation. This action of the Railways has been taken to crack down on fraudsters who book tickets using automated software (Bot).
Why is this action being taken?
Railways has taken this big action to help the passengers. It is often seen that some people book multiple tickets simultaneously using bots or automated tools, due to which normal passengers are unable to get tickets. A special AI-powered software developed by the Railways has been used to identify and deactivate more than 2.4 crore such accounts in the last six months. Also, 20 lakh other accounts have been marked as suspicious and are currently being reviewed for Aadhaar and ID verification.
This action is a big relief for those who often face problems while booking Tatkal tickets. This move by the Railways is an important effort towards making the online ticket booking system more equitable and reliable.
Currently, IRCTC has more than 13 crore active users. But the problem is that only 1.2 crore of these accounts are Aadhaar verified. IRCTC has decided to closely examine all non-Aadhaar verified accounts. If these accounts are found suspicious, they can be permanently disabled.
If Aadhaar is linked, then instant booking will be easy!
To promote transparency in instant booking and ensure fair access for all, IRCTC is now giving priority to Aadhaar-linked users during the first 10 minutes of instant booking. During this time, even authorized agents are not allowed to book tickets. This makes it even more important for regular travelers to get Aadhaar verified.
To avoid any hindrance in your booking, you should link your IRCTC account with Aadhaar as soon as possible. This will ensure smooth access to services and also prevent the account from being disabled.
