    My name is Aswani, my brother reserved tathkal ticket and we have xerox copies for that ticket, but i forgot original ticket at home in a hurry to go as my mother's condition is not good. But i am having xerox copy and Valid ID proofs with me, but TC charged 1400/-. As per the rule if we are not having original copy, but having PNR, we need to pay 50/- as fine amount. Here i have my xerox copy of ticket and i'm ready to 50/-. But instead of that amount he demanded pay 1400/- otherwise asking me to get down from train. Just imagine i am girl and time is 10pm and i don't know any places near by current station. I tried to request him, he is very rude and arrogant. First let me know why should i pay 1400/- when i am having xerox copy of ticket and valid ID proof with me?

      My user ID 'asminox' was disabled for the reasons best know to IRCTC.
      I rmailed to IRCTC customer care on 18th March and there is no response from them.
      The web site IRCTC has stopped new registrations due to railway budget. Doo they expect every thing has to come to standstill till the railway budget is clear and they are at leisure?
      Every time I lodge a complaint to [protected]@irctc.co.in, i get a ticket number and thats all. No further progress.
      I request you to restore the user id at the earliest.

            Dear Sir,
            I had booked a ticket from yelhanka jn to Adoni, journey dated on 3/4/2016, Train SBC Nanded & No.16594. The fare for the journey is 220 + 22.9 (service charge). Due to some reason I had to postpone the journey and I had cancelled the ticket .Thereafter I received a message saying a sum of Rs 100 will be refunded to my account, which I haven't received yet. So, why is the refund amount less than half of the amount I had paid earlier for the ticket? Why do you deduct so much?

              Dear sir/madam,

              Ticket id: irctc 2984693, pnr no.[protected]

              The train no. 22694 (On trsin: 22694, 21-feb-2016, 3a, nzm - sc) had been cancelled on 21st feb for jat
              Reservation agitation at haryana. I had received an sms from the railway authorities 4 hours before the
              Train was scheduled to depart, saying that the train has been cancelled. I even have a screenshot of
              The same and now you people are saying that train was restored and running, it is impossible as there
              Were no information regarding the restoration of train. Ok suppose, if train was restored then your
              Authority should have sent the sms or any information which was not available anywhere.

              I have repeatedly contacted the concerned authorities at irctc at the email id [protected]@irctc.Co.In and
              [protected]@irctc.Co.In. They are saying that there is no record which shows this train has been
              Cancelled. This is impossible as i have proof which shows the railways has cancelled this train. I have
              Sent the screenshot of this message more than once to the above email ids. However there is no response
              Whatsoever.

              This entire matter reflects really bad on the competency of the ministry of railways and the government
              Of india. I have raised the same on social media platforms.

              I request you to please look into this matter and see that i receive the refund of my ticket for pnr
              No.[protected].

                    I was travelling by ltt haridwar a c express in coach a2 seat 1 & 3. On 14th march 2016 from 0755 hrs onwords
                    Cleaning gang posted in train came by 0200 pm and cleaned up and requested me to fill up feedback form. I gave good report and asked whether they will visit some more times as we were travelling for more than 24 hrs, they assured me. After our dinner by 0900 pm, i expected them to come & clean the area. Nobody came and i wanted the garbage to be disposed, i took the same and i found garbage bin overflowing and some of the garbage was thrown in between coach joint. Whole area was filthy and even could not go toilet. It was sad state of affairs and the feedback form has included that these areas are kept clean. Although i signed the feedback in advance& i felt re grated. Next day on 15th march during stop over, i went around nizammuddin delhi station to find out about cleaning gang, i found them with a sound sleep in coach b 8. I had to remind them about the promised mad about cleaning. All the filth was removed after 30 minutes.
                    My suggestion that feed back form should be presented at the end of journey so that correct facts could be noted in feedback form.
                    I hope necessary action will be taken to prevent such instances
