Tatkal Booking — Tatkal Booking through internet

I hereby like to lodge a complaint in regard to the tatkal rail reservation booking through internet. Whenever the tatkal booking starts, the server is so down that one cannot book his ticket through internet.This is a regular feature and can be verified everyday. It seems that some brokers are involved in this act and they by some how slow down the server so that general people cannot log in.
Thanking you.

bt jo bhi hai...ticket nahi milta...so it sucks...

After reading all the blogs by friends, no one is happy with this including me.
If anybody can answer, why the Tatkal seva tkt booking timeline reduce from 5 days to 2 days advance.
I know nothing is going to happen on this...

I fully agree with the valuable comment. Its a real mockery to book ticket under Tatkal Quota. I am sure that there is a big nexus of Railway Officials and the Travel Agents for getting tickets booked under Tatkal as mostly the site www.irctc.co.in hangs up between 8 AM to 8.30 AM.
I request the railway minister to look into the matter as Tatkal Quota was actually meant for the person who wants to travel urgently.

Tatkal ticket mockery — Tatkal Ticket Booking Mockery

Dear Railway Minister

We are a poor countryment facing lot of problem in booking Tatkal Ticket thru Internet at home. The Online reservation site of IRCTC get chockled from 07:57 hrs everyday to disallow general public to get ticketing thru net at internet.
Pl help and devise a system of equal sharing of ticketing by railway counter and net at off-counter for booking tatkal ticket of railway reservatioon.
Hope for better india.
Yours faithfully

Railway — Request for justification

Sir,

We would like to mention a very heartening incident during our journey from Sealdah to Naihati, availing the facility of travelling in Hetebazare Exp. (Tarin No:3163). We were about to board General Coach with our general monthly ticket. On that time on duty RPF Staff (Mr. U N Singh & Mr. Prakash Sharma) along with some on duty TT caught hold o[censored]s on the platform no 8 at around 7.50 pm, i.e., before the departure of the said train on 06.08.2010. We told them that we were not availing any reserved coach, but they did not listen to us & harassed us with slang language. They continuously hassled and manhandled us; it downgraded our social status & prestige. This incident showed that they not only misused their duty power but also were not well aware of the rules & regulations of railway. They forced us for fine of Rs. 550.00 (Rs. 275.00 each) (Fine Slip No: 037459 Dt.: 06.08.2010 and Fine Slip: 037412 Dt.: 06.08.2010) although we had monthly ticket. The details of our identities and our of monthly tickets are as follow:

a. Name: Mr. Koushik Kahali
Ticket No: 3412 (From: Halisahar to Jadavpur)
ID No: K0G69SK051
Occupation: Engineer in private organization

b. Name: Dr. Mridula Biswas
Ticket No: 9492 (From: Halisahar to Jadavpur)
ID No: 91DPC17071
Occupation: Research fellow at CSIR Lab (Govt. of India)

We therefore request you to take suitable action against these railway staffs (RPF & TT) to avoid further harassment of innocent people.

Thanks in anticipation

Koushik Kahali & Mridula Biswas

Govt should restrict that Tatkal Tickets can be booked only through railway booking counters and no other way should be provided and also the charge should be 150 rs + ticket charge .I Hope this will work and give a justice .

Faced the same problem on three days continuously. Railway server went down at 0800 then it became operational again at 0815. At 0816 was given ticket WL43 on tatkal. Next I checked the website at 1000 and the waiting had increased only to WL44. Obviously someone is playing hooky here and cornering all the tatkal tickets. My roomy went to a hotel next to the railway station the same day and got a fully confirmed ticket to Delhi in black. No one checked his id on the train whether the ticket was in his name at all. Railways is bringing a bad name to online reservations. Earlier too I have had tatkal bookings done and never faced this problem. Looks like someone within the Railways has been able to sabotage the booking system completely.

Dear Sir,
This is my third time entry
I had booked one ticket from SAMBALPUR to ROURKELA in train no.8006 vide PNR no [protected] for dated 25.08.10 Through IRCTC, But train was changed its rout from sambalpur and not travel to Rourkela. The train was changed its rout via ANGUL and Kharagpur since 2 months back, how IRCTC was allowed to book the ticket? It is an cheating case, IRCTC is miss guiding passengers.
So you are requested to refund my total amount as bellow
Rs.524.00 for fare
Rs. 20.00 for IRCTC charges
Rs. 10.00 for SBI debit card charges
Rs.554 total
Harassment charges extra

Railway — wrong punishment & misbehave

Today when I reached the station there was long que at ticket counter because only two counters were open and after waiting for more than half an hour I was unable to get the ticket then I went to enquire about what is the time of last train. Since, there was no person sitting at the enquirty counter only hand written display board was there with insufficient information and then when moved to enquire with other person from public standing there a lady ticket checker asked about the ticket. I replied that I am here to enquire about the train timing and neither I board in any train nor deboard from any of train, I just now came here and there is no such line or checking between the equiry counter and platform. I also showed her my Delhi High Court ID card and asked that I am law binding citizen. Even though she caught me and repeatedly requested her but she didn't listen me at all. Thernafter, I asked her to take the fine and allow me to go then but she did not agree on that too, perhaps she was trying to take some bribe money but have not paid then she took me to police personnel and tried to build pressure and when I asked her for complaint book she refused for that and even did not allow me to go anywhere. When two train passed away then took the fine Slip No. 669319 dtd. 18.10.2010 at about 08:30 am and when she released me then I tried to lodge a complaint but after enquir about the complaint book one railway personnel told me to lodge the complaint before SS but his chamber/cabin was locked and got a reply that he will come after 10:00am.
I therefore request you to please take an appropriate action against the Lady Ticket Checke deputed on 18.10.2010 at Old Faridabad Station at about 08:30 am against Fine Slip No. 669319 dt. 18.10.2010.

In anticipation of a positive response and action in this regard.

with best regards,
