The Railways have found six major categories of irregularities and frauds that desperate commuters are resorting to in order to get on one these days.

"A team of senior officers and ticket checking staff of Central Railway (CR) conducted an intensive drive from August 1 to September 17 and detected 4,911 cases. The major irregularities included travelling on altered tickets, travelling with fake ID cards, travelling with colour photocopies of the ticket, transferred tickets in someone else's name, misuse of senior citizen quota and improper conversion of system generated ticket to e-tickets," a senior official said.
