[image: http://im.rediff.com/money/2010/aug/16rail.jpg]In an yet another passenger-friendly move, the ministry of railways has *decided to accept credit cards issued by banks with laminated photograph as proof of identity for traveling on e-tickets. *
The new provision has come into effect from August 6, 2010. The bank credit card is in addition to the existing seven proofs of identity for undertaking journey on e-tickets namely; a) voter's identity card; b) passport; c) PAN card; d) driving license; e) photo identity card issued by central/state government; f) student identity card with photograph issued by recognised school/college for their students; and g) nationalised bank passbook with photograph. There will be no concession, including student concession, admissible to the persons booking e-tickets. Concession will only be for senior citizens. The ministry of railways has asked all zonal railways to issue necessary instructions to all concerned, particularly ticket checking staff, so as to educate them about this modified provision and to avoid inconvenience to the passengers. *- PIB* http://business.rediff.com/report/2010/aug/16/railways-okay-bank-credit-card-as-proof-of-identity.htm -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""GLOBAL SPECULATORS"" group.
