LOK SABHA
A few cases of
misuse of reservations made on the basis of Identity Cards issued
to Members of Parliament have come to notice during the course
of ticket checking but no separate statistics or details are
maintained for the same. Besides, the normal checks on trains,
additional checking is undertaken by the various squads of Commercial
and Vigilance Departments to prevent misuse of various kinds
of travel authorities.
This information
was given by the Minister of State for Railways Shri Bandaru
Dattatraya in a written reply to a question from Shri K.E. Krishnamurthy
in the Lok Sabha today.
