Train ticket counter opened at Old City Post Office

Dear Comrades,

HYDERABAD: Residents of the Old City can henceforth book railway tickets at the Jubilee Head Post Office in Diwan Devdi area, opposite the Madina Hotel.

The Department of Posts (India Post) had given its clearance and the reservation facility is likely to be functional from April first week.


"The Department of Posts had signed an agreement with the Indian Railways in 2007 to allow reservation of railway tickets through computerised passenger reservation system (PRS) through identified post offices in the state. In Andhra Pradesh postal circle, the railway passenger reservation system (PRS) was first installed at the Hanamkonda Post Office in Warangal in 2008. Subsequently, it was extended to 29 other post offices statewide and six in the city," assistant postmaster general (financial service & business development) M Poornachandra Rao told TOI. "Passengers can book tickets at the counter, which will open between 8 am and 5 pm. Tatkal tickets too can be booked. However, they have to pay service charges. " the official said.
