Railways reduced platform ticket price across the country
Recently, Indian Railways has decided to withdraw the prices of platform tickets. The increase in platform tickets was done during the Kovid-19 epidemic. On Thursday, the Railways said that now the platform ticket will cost Rs 10 as before. The Railways took this decision after the Central Railway reduced the platform ticket prices. The reason behind increasing the prices was that the railways had argued that due to this there would be no gathering of people on the platform.
