Thats the problem some passengers were facing these days. I will share my experience with all of you regarding this.
I used to travel between Hyderabad and Banglore, once I chosen 12785 and booked a Tatkal Confirmed berth in sleeper class. At the time of booking I entered my PAN number for ID details and in that card my name shows as 'DAVID MATHEWS BEN'.In PAN card its your wish to make your name look alike. Where the surname will be after the first name. Before the rule of ID check for online booking, whenever I enter my full name in the PRS form which is ' BEN DAVID MATHEWS', the clerk shorts it as 'B.D.MATHEWS' and the same appears on...
more... the final chart. So, I though that the full name shouldn't be entered, and applied the same rule in online booking too. And in the ticket it comes as ' B D MATHEWS'...as days gone, I didnt encountered any problem with the TTE's. But once in this 12785 train, a TTE raised issue regarding the name. ''In your ticket it was 'B D MATHEWS', but in your ID card it was written as 'DAVID MATHEWS BEN' I don't accept this as your id''. For a moment I was stunned with the shock from him. Later I tried to explain what exactly the problem was, and he accepted finally after a while with a caution 'Don't repeat the same for the next time'.
