Government is making aadhar as a Single and supreme Identity of an individual by linking it all the major services the Citizen is availing such as Telecom service, Railway ticket service, etc.
As per the IRCTC new press release, they have allowed users to book tickets without linking aadhar card but a limit of 6 tickets per month is there with it. If a user wants to book more ticket then he/she needs to link his/her’s aadhar card with irctc. Soon it might become compulsory to link aadhar before booking a ticket on IRCTC.
