‘Digital-only’ payment at Thanjavur railway ticket counters draws customers’ ire

THANJAVUR: The ticket reservation counters at Thanjavur railway junction, which were shifted back to the main building only three days ago, have been witness to commotion since as customers complain that the staff were not accepting cash and instead insisted upon digital payments only for bookings. As part of redevelopment work on the station under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme (ABSS), the ticket reservation counters that were functioning at the main entrance were shifted to the building at the southern entrance on February 24. After completion of work on the counters in the main building, they were shifted back on May 21.
