Chief Commercial Managers,
All Zonal Railways.

(COMMERCIAL CIRCULAR NO.43 OF 2014)

Sub: Reservation - group/families travelling together being
treated as one unit.

As per extant instructions, Zonal Railways have been authorised to
delegate the powers for group reservation/party booking to various levels
prescribing the extent to which each level can permit such booking. The
railways have also been allowed to impose local restrictions to curb any
malpractices.

2. References were received from some Zonal Railways regarding
inconvenience caused to the passengers due to different timings being
followed by Zonal Railways for allowing group booking on the opening
day of reservation. Accordingly, comments were called for from Zonal
Railways.

3. The matter has been examined accordingly and it has been decided
that on the opening day of reservation, bulk reservation at the party
booking counter should be permitted from 09:00 a.m., i.e. one hour after
the opening of reservation. Zonal Railways may, however, continue to
impose other local restrictions in order to prevent misuse.

4. Necessary instructions may be issued to all a

मुख्य वाणिज्य प्रबंधक,
सभी क्षेत्रीय रेलें।

(2014 का वाणिज्य परिपत्र सं. 43)

विषय: एक साथ यात्रा करने वाले ग्रुप/परिवार, जिन्हें एक इकाई माना ज़ाता है, के लिए
आरक्षण। ः

मौजूदा अनुदेशों के अनुसार, WT रिजर्वेशन/पार्टी बुकिंग के लिए क्षेत्रीय Yat को विभिन्‍न
स्तरों पर शक्तियां प्रत्यायोजित करने के लिए प्राधिकृत किया गया है, जिसमें निर्धारित किया गया है
कि प्रत्येक स्तर पर किस सीमा तक इस प्रकार की बुकिंग की अनुमति दी जा सकती है। रेलों को
किसी भी प्रकार का कदाचार रोकने के लिए स्थानीय प्रतिबन्ध लगाने की अनुमति भी प्रदान की गई
है।

2. आरक्षण खुलने के दिन, ग्रुप बुकिंग की अनुमति प्रदान करने के लिए क्षेत्रीय Yat द्वारा
अलग-अलग समय का पालन करने के कारण यात्रियों को हो रही परेशानी के संबंध में कुछ क्षेत्रीय
रेलों से पत्र प्राप्त हुए थे। तदनुसार, क्षेत्रीय रेलों से उनकी टिप्पणी मांगी गई थी।

3... इस मामले की तदनुसार जांच की गई है और यह विनिश्चय किया गया है कि आरक्षण के
खुलने के दिन, पार्टी बुकिंग काउंटर पर अधिक मात्रा में होने वाले आरक्षण की अनुमति प्रात: 09:00
बजे से अर्थात्‌ आरक्षण खुलने के एक घंटे बाद दी जाएगी। बहरहाल, दुरुपयोग को रोकने के लिए
क्षेत्रीय tet अन्य स्थानीय प्रतिबन्ध जारी रख सकती हैं।
