Irctc — Cancellation not possible for Waitlisted tickets

Hi,

I booked my train ticket online via www.irctc.co.in. It was waitlisted even after the chart is prepared. Since I cannot travel on a waitlisted ticket I have decided to cancel it. However system throws an error, "Ticket cannot be cancelled since chart is prepared".

I am neither suppose to travel nor cancel ticket, what does it mean? Look at the height of cheating that too by government org.

Here are my train ticket details:
