A man has been arrested by the Varanasi Government Railway Police (GRP) for allegedly posing as a Travelling Ticket Examiner (TTE) and duping passengers by selling fake tickets, officials said. Accused, identified as Adarsh Jaiswal, is a resident of Atriala in Madhya Pradesh's Rewa. He was arrested by the GRP and the Railway Police Force based on several complaints of fraud against him. A fake East Central Railway identity card and a TTE apron were recovered from him. According to officials, Jaiswal claimed during the investigation that he posed as a TTE to facilitate his marriage to his girlfriend. The accused, a graduate, was unemployed at the time. Varanasi GRP Inspector Rajaul Nagar said, 'He loved a woman and wanted to marry her, but his parents refused to get him married till he secured a job. That is why he resorted to such an act." Nagar stated that Jaiswal created the fake ID card at a cyber cafe in his village in March. Additionally, Jaiswal generated fake train tickets and sold them to passengers. The GRP Inspector cited an instance of fraud where Jaiswal sold a fake ticket for the Janta Express (Varanasi to Laksar, coach B-3) to Jyoti Kiran and Gungun. However, when Jyoti reached the station the following day, she found coach M-2 instead of B-3, prompting her brother to complain to the railway staff. 'He used to make fake tickets and mislead the people. A case has been registered against the accused and a probe is underway," he said. First Published: June 28, 2025, 12:51 IST
