[Resolved]  Indian Railway — Auto cancellation of W/L e-ticket

Hi,

This is really surprising policy of indian railway where the the wait-list e -ticket will be automatically cancelled after chart preparation. At the last moment when you are hoping for best, if the odds are against you...you might be without ticket in minutes. When e-ticket facility is given for passenger easiness and make them comfortable with the use of latest technology, Lot o[censored]s are suffering bad side of this. Thanks to Indian railway. I strongly feel this policy should change, and an alternative solution has to be provided. Because suppose we are getting W/L 10 by internet booking, we are hoping it will get confirmed after chart preparation...but surprised to see if it not confirmed we are without ticket as ticket is automatically cancelled.

I urge INDIAN RAILWAY to please consider this policy and change it soon by using latest and managed softwares for people who don't have other choice rather that travelling on same day at any condition.

Thanks

I have suffered from this problem i was coming from Chennai to Bangalore there was only 10 waiting list, when t.t person came at 11:30 pm to check the ticket he is saying get down from the train on next stop your ticket has been cancelled.IT was very pain full condition for me so that i changed that palace and went to another coach and came to Bangalore with out ticket..i want to ask the Indian railways that you are making any rule for people convenience or you want to put people in trouble...THINK ABOUT...AND CHANGE THIS RULE IMMEDIATILY

I have booked TATKAL E ticket from Vishakhapattanam to Nagpur for 7.6.2013 train. First it showed the wl no 17 then 10 and after chart prepared it showed wl 2. It is suggested that as soon as it is declared that the chart is prepared, it should also declared that all wl has been automatically cancelled. There is no meaning in showing wl 2 after chart is prepared.
