After the earlier cancellation of trains, the railways had given the facility to the passengers that along with giving back the full fare of their tickets, the tickets can be canceled for 45 days from the date of the departure of trains. Following the current order issued by the railway, many people are canceling their railway tickets. Meanwhile, the Indian Rail Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) has appealed to the people not to cancel their e-tickets on their own through the site if the train is canceled. According to IRCTC, this may harm them. If the train is canceled by the railway government, then refund will be given on the e-ticket and your ticket will be canceled automatically.
