The Future of Railway Bookings: Modern PRS by December 2025
While we're celebrating the launch of RailOne, there's even more exciting news on the horizon! Railway Minister Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw also highlighted the incredible progress CRIS has made on upgrading the existing Passenger Reservation System (PRS).
Imagine a PRS that is:
Agile and Multilingual: Easier to use for everyone, no matter their language.
Scalable to handle 10x the current load: This means no more worries about server crashes during peak booking times!
Capable of 1.5 lakh ticket bookings and 40 lakh enquiries per minute: Talk about speed and efficiency!
This modern PRS, expected by December 2025, will also be incredibly inclusive, offering advanced functionalities like seat choice and fare calendars, alongside integrated options for Divyangjan, students, and patients. This truly shows a commitment to making travel accessible for all.
Technology Paving the Way Forward
It's clear that Indian Railways is deeply committed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of becoming a key growth engine for India's "Vikas Yatra." The launch of RailOne is a powerful testament to "Bhartiya Rail's" dedication to democratizing technology and delivering world-class mobility to every single passenger.
