[Resolved]  Southern Railways — TTR Asked bribe and reacted violant in Vaigai express

Today I was travelling in AC Chair car from Ariyalur to Chennai in Vaigai Express (02- March 2008). I was travelling with my wife who is pregnant and with my mother who reached the age of 60. I have booked the ticket in IRCTC claiming senior citizen fro my mother. AT last minute i saw that in ticket my mother sex was printed as Male instead of Female. Before getting into the train I showed it to TTR and showed teh age proof for her and also I specified the error in the ticket. He told just to get into the train. After getting into the train he asked Rs 200 for me to adjust for this ticket . When I refused he looked into the age prrof. It was a ration card issued in July 2005 and her age was specified as 57. He mwntioned that as a reason and he told me to either pay penalty for it or pay himn rs 200. I finally paid peanlty of RS 680 ( forced to pay). Every body knows that ration card form will be received before 6 months and teh age mentioned that was not exactly on teh date of issue. Ration card is acceptable for age proof. Though I am going to lodge complaint against him see the attitude of TTR . I am not sure that 680 is right penalty. Even in reservation if teh proof for age is not there they should claim only for excess amount . The ticket cost will not be Rs 400. He cahrged me 680 apart from the amount received in reserved ticket
