(Commercial Circular No.35/2009) wherein it was inter-alia advised that during
peak rush period specially festival seasons and vacation periods, when platforms

and railway stations become congested due to heavy movement of passengers,

the entry to ticketing area of platforms on the authority of platforms tickets may
be restricted by temporarily stopping sale of platform tickets.

2. The matter has been reviewed and it has been decided that with a view to
restrict heavy.movement of passengers on platform on the authority of platform
tickets, zonal railways can take a decision to ban sale of platform tickets, at: major
stations, during festival seasons/peak rush periods and during particular day taking
into account the local conditions.

3.. However, persons coming to the stations just to assist the aged, illiterate
and lady passengers etc who are not in a position to fend for themselves at railway
stations, may be exempted from such restrictions.
