The Indian railways has announced that you don't need a ticket now to board a train. You can pay or reserve a seat or pay the penalty amount with your debit card. Now is it not a trick to put the passengers into a trap and extract money for them. Normally people who don't get a confirmed ticket used to board a train and used to catch hold of the TT or ticket collector/ checker and he would give them a seat after paying for the seat and some bribe too. I have suffered because of this. My reserved seat was given to someone else for a bribe by the TT. It happened to my son to and my son had give the TT a shout. These nuisance will be repeated by using the debit card this time. Rather earlier a passenger without a ticket had to get down in the next station without having to pay anything but now the passenger has to pay and may not get a seat and therefore travel his whole journey standing because the TT can only allot a vacant seat.
The Indian railway is duping the customers.

India has a high population so the trains are usually filled up and there are rarely empty seats. So boarding a train without a ticket can become a problem for the passenger.

@RubyHawk I came back home last year July from Kolkata by train. The AC two tier roof near the bathroom was leaking. I may have to travel to my elder son's place in Kolkata next year in the month of April.

I will only travel after a getting a prepaid train ticket. Never wait to get my ticket after boarding the train.

I think they will allow credit cards as well but what's the use. If the TT can't provide you with a confirmed seat you will be losing the money.
