India Railway — Tickets were issued before Reservation Time 8 am

Hello,

On 27th January 2009 I was booking ticket on line through irctc site in TATKAL Quota. When i checked sits availability in indianrail.gov.in at 7:52:07 Hrs i found that only 37 Sits are available. As per rule it should be 72 for TATKAL. And you can not book tickets before 8:00 AM. So how can any one book ticket before 8:00AM?. I have screen shot of indianrail.gov.in.

Previously also i had problem with Online Reservation system. But irctc did not respond in good manner.

What can be done i this situation? Either tickets are booked before Reservation Open time by agents or Reservation system is having some problem. If reservation system is having some problem then it should show faulty result daily. But it is not happening daily.

BEING AN AGENT SIMILAR PROBLEMS ARE FACED BY ME ALSO, AND DOES NOT REACH TO DEAF EARS EVEN AFTER SEVERAL E MAILS TO IRCTC AS WEL AS ITZCASH
This happens all the time, I was searching for a tatkal ticket on 22 Oct & as I opened sites at 8, it shows tatkal status as waitinglist of 58, how is that possible, this means that agents book tatkal tickets before 8am
I also face the same problems even in Online booking and over the railway station counters. When the counter open at the very first day of advance booking. the very first ticket shown waiting list . How it happens. I think there are some underground tieups with railways and booking agents .

Railway authorities should look into this issue and do needful

Railway — irctc not working

I am trying to open the irctc.co.in but its automatically prompting me for authentication id and password. even if i put in my irctc id and password its not accepting. moreover if the page gets loaded then also its not accepting my password.

Sir,

I have written the correct age that is 17 years, but reservation clerk was typed 12 years. I was not seen that immediately. After some time I again went to the reservation clerk she was left over due to her duty time is over. I asked any clerk to please checkit and do needful. He argueing with me it is not our mistake it your mistake without seeing the reservation form. After seeing that form his replay is this ticket issued the madam then she has to do it.

This issue is at Nature cure railwaystation at 1.50pm today i.e., 12/03/2010.
