India's population is increasing daily, and Most common people are counting on the locals of the railroad to travel to their destinations. One among the most critical challenges within the current ticketing facility is the queueing system of community railway tickets. Customers are required to expect an extended period to receive their native train tickets daily, which becomes a costly method.

A user account is created with user-id and password for Authentication. To book user's price tag mistreatment, the application has to enter the station's supply location and alternative details. The generated ticket is in the form of PDF with the Quick Response Code (QR-code). The price tag attributes are the ticket-id, the name and gender details, the user's DOB, the date, and the supply station's name. The Traveling Ticket Checker can check the ticket-id in the mobile application to check whether the user ticket is valid or invalid. It allows the user to book their tickets in the ticket-counter area only.

Fare evasion has become an important issue for public transport companies, especially for those that have adopted proof-of-payment ticketing systems. Recent years have seen strong growth in the publication of studies on fare evasion. This paper reviews 113 studies to identify the characteristics of the research on fare evasion. An overview and classification in five main areas, i.e., fare evader-oriented, criminological, economic, technological, and operational is provided. Next, the status quo of these studies is assessed to support possible unifying research development.
