Don't use PAN number for railway Tatkal booking as proof of ID!

Don't use PAN number for railway Tatkal booking as proof of ID!
Vishnu -Kolkata
Don't use PAN number for railway Tatkal booking as proof of ID!Never Never! Never!
As you do not disclose your password as it is often demanded.Who fail to understand the gimmick,happen to be the latest victims.
Digital Desh is dependent on numbers,of course,but the numbers identifying you may get you in trouble.
Indian internal security has never been full proof aginst cyber crimes.We all read news about hackers using IDs at random and the plight of the victims.
.
Mind you,the Railways simply display the PAN. name, sex and age of passengers on reservation charts pasted on railway compartments.It might be misused and it should be avoided.The government should rather do something to stop this nonsense.

Because the public display of PAN might be  a boon for benami transactions. It is mandatory for traders like jewelers to collect tax (TCS) from customers on purchase of jewelry worth Rs 5 lakh & bullion worth Rs 2 lakh.Even banks demand PAN for deposit over certain limit.

To accommodate high net worth customers, traders have a easy source of benami PAN numbers, name, sex and age from reserved railway compartments. A traveller recently noticed a chap copying PAN particulars along with name, age and sex pasted on reserved compartments, and when confronted with the help of railway police, he admitted that he gets Rs 10 per PAN particulars from jewellers. These persons are copying PAN information of senior citizens, women etc from sleeper class with the intention that passengers in sleeper class are not serious tax payers and generally salaried class..

In that case the department will first initiate action from the tax payer's side asking him to explain the sources of money for the above transaction done in his name and also to prove that he has not carried on the above transaction..

You may quote your driving licence #, Voter ID # etc as your ID Proof but definitey not your PAN.

Beware!!!!.
