Railway Penalties Soar: Ticketless Travel Costs More Now

Hey, rail riders! Starting July, ticketless travel just became a financial black hole. The Indian Railways is trading in criminal charges for a penalty system that’ll make your wallet weep—minimum Rs 500 for skipping tickets. And if you think sneaking into a women’s coach is a good idea? That'll cost you Rs 2,500! Misuse facilities or ride on the roof? Get ready to cough up Rs 2,000! Stay smart, folks!
