Indian Railways: To ensure social distancing in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic, Indian Railways passengers have been found using online payment options instead of cash payment. In fact, they are finding it a more convenient way of payment as it doesn't create the lack of change issues that often arise during a cash transaction. However, during online payments, one needs to remain cautious as a single mistake may lead to loss of money also. But, for those who commit such mistakes while paying a train vendor, there is a piece of good news. If you commit any such mistake where you pay more by mistake, then after informing the railways authorities like Railway Protection Force (RPF), you can get your money back.
