The Northern Railways on 18 October 2012 introduced Pink coloured forms for Tatkal reservation. These forms would be made available with a printed warning column at the booking counters itself and would have enough space to fill in the details like names, contact number, address and others.
This step of Railways would help in getting away from the menace created by touts and unauthorized ticket agents. If the passenger is caught for buying the tickets from any of these touts or unauthorized agents, he will be responsible for the consequences that may be a fine in form of penalty or imprisonment following the provisions available in the Railway Act 1989. In case address or phone number provided in the ticket is found false, the passenger would be deboarded from the train on the very next station.
Tatkal being a special service offered by the Railways requires special documents to be presented and hence the form would serve to the requirements.
