Recently, the Government has made it mandatory for Aadhaar Cardholders to link their Aadhaar to a variety of services to get its benefits. Linking your Aadhaar is very important and it works as a golden ticket to get various advantages of the government schemes and initiatives.
IRCTC Rule
IRCTC has numerous rules for its passengers to make their journey comfortable. From the ticket booking timings to the total number of tickets you can book in a month. Now, there is one more update for the regular passengers, who prefer travelling by trains frequently. Passengers can book more than 6 e-tickets by linking the aadhaar to the IRCTC account. The total number of tickets passengers can book after linking their aadhaar is 12 in a month. It is still limited but better than the total of 6 tickets.
Another update is that users will get their IRCTC account password after the verification of their phone number and email. On the official portal, they can verify their credentials by submitting the OTP. Passengers will receive two OTPs, one on the phone number and another through email. After verifying them both they will get their login password.
