New Delhi: Starting December 23, 2025, Indian Railways has implemented a mandatory Aadhaar-based OTP (One-Time Password) verification process for Tatkal and Premium Tatkal bookings on 100 specific train routes. This security measure aims to streamline the booking process and ensure authentic passenger verification for high-demand services.
