The Indian Railways has started keeping records of the destination addresses of all passengers booking their tickets on the IRCTC website to help facilitate contact tracing in case COVID-19 are detected among them later. According to a statement, the provision to include the destination address has been made on the website from May 13. Earlier, in at least 12 cases, passengers travelling in trains were later found to be positive.
