[Resolved]  Indian Railway — Miss management at AC coaches

Dear sir,

I was travelling from New Delhi to Amritsar in train no.2013 New Delhi- Amritsar Shatabdi Express. Your pantry car service guy misbehaved with me. I was not feeling well, so i refused to have my dinner which was being served by them. I requested them to provide me a cup of tea. The service guy told me that he will provide in few minutes.

But when i did not get the cup of tea, i asked him. he talked so roudly as he was talking with the servant. And refused to provide on cost also.

If In Shatabdi customer is being served by Pantry Car staff, then what is the fun to charge this much of amount including food.


Waiting for reply.

Dear Sir

Its all about my journey from Bhubaneswar to Guwahati.

Am traveling from Bhubaneswar to Guwahati bearing Train No 0201, PNR No[protected], Ticket No-A12801127 Dated on 11/03/09.I wanted to change my class from Sleeper to 3rd A/C.I searched for a TT who can do it for me.But surprisingly I didnt find a single railway staff.After train reaching in Howrah a TT has come to check the ticket.I told him to change my class from Sleeper class to 3rd A/C.He demanded suddenly Rs 300/- apart from difference amount changing from Sleeper class to 3rd a/c which comes a amount Rs 646/- only.I asked to him why I will pay you that extra money????He boldly replied me coz I can sleep well in A/C coach and if I want to sleep well, I have to pay if I want to sleep there.Then suddenly another TT has come and started bargain with me and told me directly that I will get the receipt of Rs 646/- for changing of my class but not recieve any receipt for that extra amount.In a bargain the amount has been finalised Rs 150/-.Then that TT called another person of A/C coach by cellphone name Mr Ghosh, Conductor whom i find out from his batch intact in his coat.Then he took the money Rs 646/- for changing my class from sleeper to AC/3 bearing receipt no 264262and alotted me B1/51 and took Rs 150/- extra coz he did it for me.What a shame.Its ridiculous and disgusting.
So its my sincere request to the authority please take necessary steps to avoid this type of situation to others.

Subject: - Delaying in Payment – Pay Order A006506.

Respected Sir
This is “SRIKRISHNA KUMAR” on 06th of March’09 I got a latter from The Chief Commercial Manager, Eastern Railway, Calcutta Latter No. (C438/6/54649/1/09Re) with the subject “Refund of Fare”. According to the latter I am able to get Rs. 216/- (Pay Order A006506) from Rishra office on production of this latter. I visited to Rishra office four to five times but Rishra office is not able to pay me the said amount Rs. 216/- because they did not receive there copy regarding the same and after asking to give written that “They are not able to pay because of not receiving of there copy they refused to do same” and advised to contact CCM, Eastern Railway. I am asking you the reasons for delaying of my payment Rs. 216, and why Rishra office is not received there copy by that they can pay my amount. Please take immediately action towards my problem.

Thanking You

Hello Sir
I am a regular traveller in Kanyakumari express(Bangalore-Coimbatore).My primary problem is the 3 tier in side berths.This is ridiculous to have 3 berths in the side.
1.The upper berth has hardly any space to get on .It requires a fitness level of an olympic athelete.People who are unable to climb just lie down on the floor along with people who have waitlisted tickets.
2.People over 5'10'' like me(I am 6 ft) have to put the legs out all the time and it is suspended in air throughout the journey, that gives 'Terrible backaches'
3.Getting on and off is very difficult and almost impossible for some coz we have to crouch so much that we touch our knees with our head.
4.So many people have to share a very little space and it becomes very congested and we end up adding baggages on top of people.

Even there are organisations who lend their voice against the 'Cruelty on animals' but there is NOBODY to give their voice to help the struggling passengers.
The railways is a profit making organisation but inspite of the staggering numbers they show as 'profit' there seems to be ABSOLUTELY no improvement of the toilets.I bet it would be the WORST rail toilets in the whole world.

The railways just turns a blind eye on people who get into reserved compartments and take the reserved seats
1.One who has reserved his seat as early as 90 days has to fight it out every time
2.The compartment is full with people and their baggages so no way we could find place to put our bags
3.They keep chatting at high volume for the whole journey and dont let anybody sleep
4.It is not possible to get into a toilet coz it is so messy with so many people abusing it
5.It is very very unsafe coz anybody can unsuspectingly alight with somebody else's baggage

after all this discomfort the TTR comes and says nothing and obviously they are helpless coz they do not have any police support to get the misbehaving passengers out of the train.
I do not know how to make our voice audible to the railway officials who say 'We have not recieved any complaints from passengers'.
Please look into these issues and act accordingly, It would be of a great help to commuters all over the country.
Regards
Vijay

the system is very inconvinent to travel long distance.so please look upon it .tanks

I traveled by 1014- Lokmanya TT express on 11th April, 2009, from Bangalore- LTT by AC B3 compartment. The bed sheets supplied were not cleanly washed and not pressed. Appeared as i[censored]sed by someone. Towels were full of stains. Consequently, we could not use them. The attendant declined to give complaint book. TTE was not available to lodge complaint.
General cleandinees far below expected standards. The garbage under wash basin overflowing. compartment never swept during 24 hours. Urchins entering for begging. unauthorised venders were entering. No coach attendent/ TTE was preventing misuse of facilities.
will authorities ensure better service?

i with my wife n children were travelling on 12th april2009, train no.2622 in a/c 2tier . n we got really annoyed seeing the security arrangements in hazratnizamudin to chennai express .
my wife was sleeping on the lower berth no.26 with one of my kid n she kept her hand bag under her head . n somebody in midnight time managed to steal her bag .their was so called a attendent in that coach, who was so badly drunk during her duty time.we have launched an fir against that attendent being aware of the fact everything will remain unanswered.
m really tensed seeing the kind of atmosphere u r providing to ur travellers.today it's an monetary loss but seeing the negligence in terms of security, i dont feel any family can anymore travel in indian ralways.

kindly take certain actions in term of security.

There is nothing changed.We have complained to few forums earlier but maintenance, behaviour of stuffs, bad food quality have not changed yet.we are thinking to go courts if things are not going to change.If these are happening with Rajdhani Express, then what will happen to other trains?

I had purchased to & fro 3AC tickets for 3 person in HWH-KGM Wkly Spl train from HWH to KGM & back on 20/3/09.
Following fare is given in every Indian Railways official website

Train no. Train name Fare Total
0363(Up) HWH-KGM Wkly Spl Basic fare - Rs.1054/- Rs.1079/-
Resv chg – Rs.25/-

0364(Down) KGM-HWH Wkly Spl Basic fare–Rs.1054/- Rs.1109/-
Resv chg – Rs. 25/-
Superfast chg –Rs.30/-

Total fare for upward journey per person is Rs.1079/-, so 3 passangers fare would be Rs.3237/-. Similarly, downward fare per person is Rs.1109/-, so 3 passangers fare would be Rs.3327/-.
However, I was charged Rs.3297/- & Rs.3432/- repectively for 2 journeys. Going by the Railways official fare chart I paid excess amount of Rs.165/-. I demand a refund of that aforesaid amount ASAP.
My Ticket no. & PNR no. are 34918130 &[protected] and 34918131 &[protected] respectively.
Also I fail to understand why same train become superfast on its downward journey from KGM to HWH.


Thanking you
