Indian Railway Ticket Checking Staff Organisation — Unacceptable behavior by Platform Ticket checkers.

Address:	New Delhi, Delhi

I had gone to Old Delhi railway station on the 4th of October 2015 to pick up a relative of mine . After picking him up and coming back we were stopped by a man who asked us for our tickets. He showed his ticket and I told that I was just there picking him up. He told that I had to pay Rs. 260 as i dint take a platform ticket. I told him that there was no mention of taking a platform ticket and neither did the guards at the entrance ask about it. He started manhandling me by giving sharp jabs on the chest repeatedly, telling not to talk to him like that. In the end after i agree to pay him the money he says that the fine is now Rs 520 as I was arguing with him. I told him that it was ridiculous and told him that I m not paying so much money. All this is a well planned scenario where the guards at the entrance dont ask about the platform tickets and the ticket checkers take full opportunity of the hapless victims. Not only do they manhandle the people, they also use swear language and talk to us in a very degrading and cheap way. Hope this is seen into.
