Indian Railways will introduce a new Aadhaar rule from October 1, 2025, mandating authentication for online reserved general ticket bookings during the first 15 minutes. This aims to curb misuse by unauthorized agents and ensure genuine passengers secure tickets fairly. After this initial window, all registered users can book, with PRS counter bookings remaining unaffected by this change.
