Sub: Typographical mistake in endorsement of age in reservation ticket.

Sir,

I filled form for reservation of 4 passengers for Rajdhani Exp No. 12591 from Mumbai Central to New Delhi to travel on[protected] by AC3 class.

While filling age in ticket by the reservation official in the name of Smt Neetu, a typographical mistake was done. Age was typed 51 years in place of 31 years. The same was overlooked by us because never in the past such incidence happened.

During our travel the conductor of Rajdhani Express No.12591, did not agree with our argument even showing the I.D.Proof of Smt Neetu for age confirmation and treat her as without ticket. The conductor of the coach give me two option to complete our journey ;
(1) To bribe him for Rs.500/-
(2) To pay penalty os Rs.2990/-.
I opt for option no.2. Accordingly he imposed a penalty of Rs. 2990/- vide Receipt No.-N 0019477 dated[protected]. Photocopy of the same is attached herewith. Original receipt may be produced/submitted on final refund of penalty.

You are therefore requested to go through the whole matter and confirm the age filled in reservation form so that the penalty amount may be refunded to me and the conductor should not harass the passengers.

Thanking you,
