Lahore: Pakistan Railways has launched electronic ticketing. Pakistan Railways is used by thousands of passenger daily to travel across Pakistan. Earlier they had to wait in long queues to book their seat. And there were chances of employees charging passengers extra amount by false claims.
But now through e-ticketing (online booking) passengers can book their ticket from the comfort of home. It will also eliminate the corruption of employees.
Currently this facility will be available only for trains running between Lahore & Rawalpindi, and on Green Line which operates from Karachi. However it is expected that e-ticketing facility will be available for all trains in near future.
