I had long experience to travel by local trains from both Howrah and Sealdaha stations .Unfortunately it came to my notice that a large section of passengers regularly travel without tickets and their strategies are to move in small groups and most of them keep some money with them and so as to utilise the same for penalty if they were caught and their calculations are even they pay the same and for only one day the rest days of the month they will travel without tickets. Thus they could save a substantial amount.
It would be evident from the above for these act of dishonesty the Indian Railways suffers huge revenue loss every year. It is also true a small group of passengers also travel without ticket but they are compelled to do as they are very poor.
It is my humble request to the Railway authorities to take up the matter very seriously and try to sort out the problem on war footing basis and thus save Railways from the said loss.
