North Eastern Railway has invited applications from common citizens to manage Automatic Ticket Vending Machines (ATVM) at railway stations.

This move aims to reduce the long queues at ticket counters and make travel easier for the general public.

Who can apply for the ATVM Facilitator role

The railway is looking for local residents, retired railway employees, and their adult children or spouses to take up this responsibility. Applicants must be at least 18 years old and have passed the 10th grade (SSLC). Knowledge of the local language is also required to help passengers effectively. In some divisions like Prayagraj, the railway has specifically invited applications from Divyangjan.

What are the benefits and requirements for facilitators

Facilitators will use smart cards to issue unreserved tickets to passengers. As an incentive, they will receive a bonus of up to 3% on every ticket sold. While the railway handles the cost of the machine, electricity, and maintenance, the facilitator must provide a security deposit based on the station category.

How will this help the common passengers

Many passengers struggle with ATVM machines or wait in long lines at the booking window. With a dedicated facilitator at the machine, people can get their tickets faster. This system is being implemented across various zones including Northern, South Central, and Southern Railway to streamline the ticketing process nationwide.
