PNR stands for "Passenger Name Record," just like in the general travel industry. It is a unique ten-digit number assigned to each train ticket booked through the Indian Railways reservation system.

When a passenger books a train ticket, the Indian Railways computerized reservation system generates a PNR to store and manage the booking details. The PNR contains essential information about the passenger&pos;s journey, such as the passenger&pos;s name, journey details, seat/berth information, ticket status, and contact information.

Indian Railways passengers can find their PNR on the top left corner of the printed or e-ticket. Additionally, the PNR status can be checked through various online and offline channels, such as the Indian Railways website, mobile applications, or by sending an SMS with the PNR number to a designated phone number.

You can check pnr on Yatri Restro Website or Mobile App. You can check also on IRCTC website or Mobile App.

Checking the PNR status is essential for passengers as it helps them determine the current status of their reservation, whether it is confirmed, on a waiting list, or if there are any changes in the seat/berth allocation. It is also useful to check PNR status to know if the ticket has been canceled or if any modifications have been made to the booking.
