Long queues and delayed train journeys are common frustrations for many commuters. But thanks to technology, railway ticket booking has become more convenient and efficient with the UTS mobile app.
Keeping in mind the convenience of railway passengers, Indian Railways launched the “UTS on Mobile” app in the year 2014. Generally, at railway stations, passengers have to stand in queues to get unreserved tickets and also have to face problems due to change in money. Using the “UTS on Mobile” app, passengers can book or renew unreserved journey tickets, platform tickets and monthly season tickets from their mobile in no time without standing in queues. Passengers also get a bonus of 3 per cent in charges on booking tickets through this app. Many passengers face the possibility of missing their train due to reaching the station late, but through this app, passengers can save their precious time and travel conveniently to their desired station by taking an unreserved ticket.
Sr.DCM Paramdeep Singh Saini said that from time to time in the Ferozepur division, railway passengers are made aware by running campaigns regarding UTS on mobile apps at railway stations. This facility is available at all stations of the Ferozepur division. Through UTS on the mobile app, the passenger gets an easy interface, using which the passenger can easily create or renew paperless unreserved tickets, platform tickets and season tickets on the mobile, this will save time for the passenger.
He said, at the same time, paper will be saved and environmental protection will also be promoted. In the same month, Railways removed the distance restriction of external geo-facing for UTS on Mobile App i.e. now passengers can book unreserved tickets, platform tickets and monthly season tickets even sitting at home. Now the number of users on this app is increasing day by day.
