Mumbai Woman Caught with Fake Train Tickets, Here What Happened Next

Mumbai: A ticket checker named Mrs. Manju Naresh Kumar, working for Central Railway in Mumbai, recently discovered a case of fraud during a routine check. The person involved, Dipti Nayi from Nallasopara, was caught with two fake first-class season tickets for the Virar-Thane route. 

According to officials, one of the fake season tickets was for the period from December 11, 2022, to June 10, 2023, and the other was from June 7, 2023, to December 6, 2023. Both tickets were found to be altered color photocopies, skillfully created using computer technology.  

Expired pass raises doubts 

Mrs. Kumar discovered a fraud when inquiring about a train ticket between Kurla and Vidya Vihar stations. An anomaly arose when Nayi presented a season ticket that had already lapsed on December 6. Subsequent scrutiny revealed it to be a color photocopy, making Kumar even more suspicious. 

Mrs. Manju, determined to get to the bottom of it, asked Nayi for the original expired ticket. However, Nayi started making excuses, making things even more questionable.  

This issue highlighted on the official account of Central Railway on X (formerly twitter) with caption “Commendable work by Mrs. Manju Naresh Kumar, TTI/CSMT, uncovering a counterfeit 1st class season ticket during a routine check in CSMT-Ghatkopar section on 15/1/24.
