Will Indian Railways start offering optional travel insurance to passengers on 2026-10-27?
91%chance, per Kāla
Why
The historical base‑rate for Indian Railways launching new passenger‑focused schemes on a specific future date is low, since most announcements are made well in advance and actual roll‑outs can be delayed. However, two recent reputable news items (Times of India [4] and The Hindu [8]) both report that, starting 27 October 2026, Indian Railways will offer an Optional Travel Insurance Scheme for ticket buyers at a nominal fee.
