Hamid Ashraf, the mastermind behind the recent railway e-ticketing scam, sent a message to the Director-General of Railway Protection Force (RPF) listing out 25 things that allegedly exposed IRCTC's security system. Ashraf, who is being hunted by IB, NIA, and RAW, wrote that ANMS (the illegal railway e-ticketing software) will be closed forever on January 25, 2020. He also told about the security loopholes in the IRCTC portal, adding that unlike Facebook and Google, IRCTC does not have its own security system. The mastermind also advised DG to fix IRCTC's security system so that the general public gets tickets easily. The message also said that the railway system is quite old, which they will understand after 10 years.
