Become JTBS to book unreserved ticket for Indian railway

JTBS, or Jan Sadharan Ticket Booking Sevak, is the person who sells unreserved Railway tickets through computerized Unreserved Ticketing System (UTS), from his/her own premises on behalf of Indian Railways. The concept of JTBS is brought to existence to shorten the long queues at Railway counters and to help passengers in getting their tickets comfortably at a nearby place.
As stated in the advertisement, JTBS is entitled to charge Re. 1 per ticket as commission from the passengers. Though low, but not bad as there is no shortage of passengers. Just think of long queues at Railway ticket counters and overloaded trains and you’ll realize how profitable it can be. If the location of JTBS counter is at a place that is easily approachable and popular, there is surely a good earning potential.
Eligibility
One needs not to be very highly qualified to become a JTBS. The applicant must be minimum 18 years of age and a matriculation certificate holder. Also, applicant must be a local resident of the locality/town for which he/she is applying.
