My brother booked a tatkal ticket for Train N0:16127 onr 31/1/2015 from Tirunelveli to Alappuzha. He gave his PAN ID as proof while booking. But unfortunately he forgot to take this ID proof while travelling. But he had his Driving licence as ID proof with him. He showed the original Driving Licence and scanned copy of PAN ID as the ID proof, the TTR didnt approve it and charged him a fine of Rs 555/= and he paid the fine. Please note that the Sleeper Class fare for this travel is only Rs:190/= Is the penalty justifiable?
Can anything be done to revoke this fine and reimburse the fine amount?
