But now there is an app that can help people get confirmed tickets, by finding alternate routes or trains to their desired destinations.

A bunch of college kids in Jamshedpur, with nothing more than compassion and a determination to make a difference in their hearts, started teaching underprivileged kids in 2007. Today, their effort has grown into a full-scale organization called Sankalp that reaches out to over 650 children in three states of India.
