Photo to be soon made mandatory to purchase air tickets

With security issues putting officials on tenterhooks, India's aviation security has now focused in making a new rule which makes it mandatory that every passenger should furnish their identity including the photograph. In case, a passenger is booking a ticket through online, then he/she would be required to upload the photograph besides complete details that includes even the address.

There will be a bar code on the printed ticket wherein when the security people scan the code, they will see the details on computer along with the photograph of the passenger. It would also help officials to track which passenger traveled if at all they require some crucial information on him/her.  Let us hope that this system will come into effect even on RTC and railway.
