Indian Railways updates its seat reservation chart protocol, aiding passenger planning with charts prepared well in advance to reduce uncertainties.

Indian Railways Seat Reservation Update

Indian Railways enhances its seat reservation chart protocol for better passenger convenience, providing more lead time and reducing travel uncertainties.

Indian Railways revised its seat reservation chart for better passenger planning, with charts ready 9 hours before for early departures and 8 hours for others.

The railways will prepare seat reservation charts at 9 pm for trains starting journeys between 5 am and 2 pm the next day, while for the rest, the list will be prepared eight hours in advance.
Since 2015, the first reservation charts have been prepared at least four hours before the scheduled departure of the train after the Railway Ministry, for the first time, framed norms in this matter. According to the ministry, the latest change has been made for passenger convenience.
"For the trains with departure between 0500 hours and 1400 hours, the first reservation chart will be prepared preferably by 21:00 of the previous day," the Railway Board directed all zones in a July 2 circular.
For the trains with departure between 14:00 and 23:59 and 00:00 and 5:00, the first reservation chart will be prepared preferably eight hours in advance." The circular instructed the zones to issue necessary instructions to all concerned accordingly, but did not mention any definite date of its implementation, nor did it mention any change in the preparation of the second reservation chart.
"Once the chart is ready eight hours before the train's departure, if seats/berths still remain vacant, passengers can book these under current booking facilities. The second chart is prepared 30 minutes to five minutes before the train's departure, and this is mainly for passengers opting for tickets under the current booking," a railway official said.
"Prior to 2015, there was no fixed time schedule for chart preparation, and zones were following varying norms. The Railway Board decided to standardise it to facilitate passengers to plan their journey well in time," an official said.
Asked the reason for increasing the time gap between chart preparation and the train's departure, officials said that although there was no feedback from the passengers to enhance the time gap, it was felt by the ministry to provide more time to passengers to plan their journey.
The Railway Board had also run a pilot project in the Bikaner Rail Division for preparing a reservation chart 24 hours in advance, and based on that experience, an eight-hour gap was finalised.
"If you know eight hours before whether your ticket is confirmed or not, it will remove uncertainty and help you plan your travel properly,&rdquo; officials said, adding that once a ticket is confirmed, passengers will lose a substantial chunk of the ticket amount as a penalty in case of cancellation.
According to the cancellation policy, if a confirmed ticket is cancelled between 48 and 12 hours before departure, passengers will get back 25 per cent of the ticket amount.
"Seats or berths falling vacant due to cancellation will be filled up through the current booking system," an official said.

The Karnataka government on Friday announced its decision to abolish the four per cent quota for &lsquo;religious minorities&rsquo; and add it to the existing quota of two dominant communities of the poll-bound state.
The four per cent reservation will now be divided into two equal parts and added to the existing quota for the Vokkaligas and Lingayats for whom two new reservation categories of 2C and 2D were created during the Belagavi Assembly Session last year.
The cabinet decided to bring the religious minorities under the EWS category.
The decision comes ahead of the assembly elections.
Briefing reporters after the cabinet meeting, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said the religious minorities quota would be done away with and brought under the 10 percent pool of the EWS group without any change of condition.
&ldquo;The four per cent (reservation for minorities) will be divided into two between 2C and 2D. The four per cent reservation for the Vokkaligas and others will enhance to six per cent and Veerashaiva Panchamasali and others (Lingayats), who were getting five per cent reservation will now get seven per cent,&rdquo; the CM explained.

Women's Reservation Bill: BRS leader Kavitha to hold hunger strike in Delhi Friday, 18 parties to participate

Watch: 12 parties join K Kavitha-led hunger strike over long pending women's reservation bill

 BRS leader K Kavitha leads hunger strike demanding early passage of Women's Reservation bill

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had promised in both the 2014 and 2019 Lok Sabha polls that his government would bring this bill and that it was also part of the BJP's election manifesto

A day ahead of her appearance before the Enforcement Directorate in the Delhi liquor scam, BRS leader K Kavitha on Friday commenced a six-hour hunger strike seeking early passage of the long-pending Women's Reservation Bill.
CPI-M leader Sitaram Yechury inaugurated the strike programme at Jantar Mantar here.
Among leaders present at the strike were Samajwadi Party leader Seema Shukla, Telangana Education Minister Savita Indra Reddy as well as state Women and Child Welfare Minister Sathyavathi Rathore. &nbsp; &nbsp;Sanjay Singh and Chitra Sarwara (AAP), Naresh Gujral (Akali Dal), Anjum Javed Mirza (PDP), Shami Firdous (NC), Sushmita Dev (TMC), KC Tyagi (JDU), Seema Malik (NCP), Narayana K (CPI), Shyam Rajak (RLD), Priyanka Chaturvedi (Shiva Sena) and ex-Congress leader Kapil Sibal have confirmed their participation.
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "Our party will extend support to Kavitha in this protest till the bill is passed. It is important to bring this bill to give equal opportunity to women in politics," Yechury said in his inaugural address.
Kavitha said, "If India needs to develop, women should play a key role in politics. For which, it is important to bring this bill which is pending for last 27 years." &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;This is just the beginning and the protest will continue across the country, she added.
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The bill, which seeks to reserve 33 per cent seats in Lok Sabha and all state legislative assemblies for women, was initially introduced in Lok Sabha on September 12, 1996, by the United Front government.
The Vajpayee government pushed for the bill in Lok Sabha but it still wasn't passed.
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;However, the UPA-I government, led by Congress, again introduced it in May 2008 and was passed in the Rajya Sabha but it was referred to a standing committee. In 2010, it was passed in the House and transmitted finally to the Lok Sabha. However, the bill lapsed with the 15th Lok Sabha. Since then, the bill has been lying in cold storage.
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Kavitha, the daughter of Telangana Chief Minister M K Chandrasekhar Rao, had on Thursday said the bill has been lying in cold storage since 2010 and the Modi government has a historic opportunity to get it passed in Parliament before 2024.
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Prime Minister Narendra Modi had promised in both 2014 and 2019 Lok Sabha polls that his government would bring this bill and that it was also part of the BJP's election manifesto.
None of the BJP leaders raised this issue and the Modi government has failed to get this bill passed in Parliament despite having a majority, she said, and added, "This is a very saddening issue." Kavitha had also said the hunger strike was planned a week before but the ED summoned her to depose before it on March 9, just a day before the planned agitation. The agency agreed to her request to appear on March 11 after the agitation.
&nbsp; &nbsp; The BRS leader has been summoned by the ED in connection with a money laundering case linked to alleged irregularities in the excise policy.

Agniveers or recruits under the Centre's Agnipath scheme will get 10 percent horizontal reservation in the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) and Assam Rifles alongwith a relaxation in the upper-age limit and exemption from the physical efficiency test while recruiting for the posts of Constables and Rifleman. 


At present, there is vertical and horizontal reservation in all paramilitary forces for candidates from Scheduled Castes at 15%, Scheduled Tribes at 7.5%, Other Backward Classes at 27%, Economically Weaker Sections at 10%, and ex-servicemen at 10%.

Agniveers or recruits under the Centre's Agnipath scheme will get 10 percent horizontal reservation in the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) and Assam Rifles alongwith a relaxation in the upper age limit and exemption from the physical efficiency test while recruiting for the posts of Constables and Rifleman.&nbsp;
The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) informed the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday while responding to a question by MP John Brittas. Minister of State for Home Nityanand Rai said in a written reply that &ldquo;an in-principle approval has been given for reservation of 10% of vacancies for ex-Agniveers in the recruitment to the post of Constable (General Duty)/Rifleman in the Central Armed Police Forces and Assam Rifles.&rdquo; &nbsp;
He further said, &ldquo;10% horizontal reservation is decided to be given to Ex-Agniveers for the post of Constable(GD)/Rifleman when the first batch of Ex-Agniveers is available for recruitment after completing engagement period of four years in Defence Forces.&rdquo;&nbsp;
At present, there is a provision for vertical and horizontal reservation in openings in all paramilitary forces with conditions for candidates from Scheduled Castes at 15 percent, Scheduled Tribes at 7.5 percent, Other Backward Classes at 27 percent, Economically Weaker Sections at 10 percent, and ex-servicemen at 10 percent.
Under vertical reservation, candidates from SC, ST, and OBC are covered, and ex-servicemen get horizontal reservation. While horizontal reservation cuts across the vertical, the latter can&rsquo;t be interlocked.&nbsp;
While Agniveers will be eligible for horizontal, their reservation will also cover all classes in addition to their service in the armed forces.
