Tatkal Ticket Button Disappears? Aadhaar Link is Mandatory for IRCTC Bookings!

• Many users find the 'Tatkal' button missing at booking time, often due to an unlinked Aadhaar card.
• IRCTC has made Aadhaar verification mandatory for Tatkal bookings to combat illegal agents and bots.
• General bookings do not require Aadhaar, but Tatkal will not proceed without it, ensuring tickets go to genuine passengers.
• To link Aadhaar: log in to IRCTC, go to 'My Account', select 'Link Your Aadhaar', enter details, and verify with OTP.
• Ensure your Aadhaar-linked mobile number is active and personal details match between IRCTC and Aadhaar to avoid issues.

Why It Matters: Link your Aadhaar to IRCTC to access Tatkal bookings and avoid last-minute disappointment.
