I travel frequently from chennai to kerala, karnataka or hyderabad.. Everytime there are people who get into the reserved compartments without having a reservation. These people typically travel to a station which is 1 or 2 hours from chennai.. For example katpadi or arakkomam. And they occupy our seats or upper berths. Why is this allowed? Why is this not regulated.. These travelers have zero accountability. There are instances where they steal people's luggages. It's astonishing that this goes on and nobody cares. Not only is this illegal but also a threat to all commuters. Request you to take immediate steps to put a stop to this nuisance.

I have booked an a flight ticket on 26 dec 2017 from ranchi to delhi in the name: sushama satpathy. Paid amount rs2954.

No confirmation, intimation was given about the non-booking of such ticket.

As a result i enquired irctc on tool free no and it was very difficult to contact

Then i knew from go air office that this ticket has not been booked but money paid fom our bank.

Then i rebooked another ticket in the same name on 28.12.11 paying rs3450 again through irctc. Wth the same name.

Such process and rpt action made me to spend rs504 in excess. (Pnr-td4isx)

It is not a mistake of mine.
I wish irctc to take care of this excess amount or else i will be dissatisfied.
