Indian Railways is the most comfortable and convenient medium to travel in the country, but many of its facilities are not known to the general public. You must have ever booked a train ticket but due to some reason you have not been able to travel, this situation has been felt many times by the general public.
If such a problem comes in front of someone just before the journey, then usually they can cancel the ticket and book a new ticket in the name of another family member. But the problem comes in this that your family members are not able to get a confirmed ticket to book a new ticket.
