I had book two tickets for my parents on 3rd december 2017, both tickets are in rac quota i. E. Rac 2 and rac 3under pnr no. - [protected] and journey date is 11th feb, 2018 from jalgaon to tatanagar. My parents are come under senior citizen category, as per my knowledge they have to get lower berths as per rule, but my mother only got the lower berth and my papa hadn't. As well their coaches are also different, one is in b1/54/ub and another in b2/28/lb.in between b1 and b2, there were two coaches a1 and a2. I am really surprised with these arrangements by railway, it is really humiliating the passengers especially the senior citizen. Please do something to improve the services because this problem my father travel in b2 only in seating mode throughout the journey. What is the meaning of reservation?

      Hi, am ankur prakash, and traveling to ahmedabad from lucknow through sabarmati express 19168, coach no a1, seat no :-8 & 10, my luggage was placed beneath the seat at jhansi station, 2 men stepped in the coach and took our trolley bag & stepped down, it was around 8 am in the morning... But when approached the coach attendant and tte ramanuj kumar... They were clueless for what has happened... I also informed grp control jhansi, they said someone will come at ur seat to attend the complaint at lalitpur, they came we explained and in reply they said,,, will check the cctv at jhansi station and will get back to us.
      My only point is this is the security in 2nd ac. And no one is ready to take the liability.

      Can anyone help us to get our luggage back.

      Regards,
      Ankur prakash

        When ever we book a tatkal ticket from howrah to any place in india with in 30 secs all the tatkal ticket will be full. Please see to this matter.
        And one more thing we have noticed when even we book a general 2nd class ticket we get only waiting list. Why is this happening. Who is this fraud booking agent doing this to make money for this. This is series matter please look into this. We are suffering from past 2 years.

            I booked my bike with registration number jh05e 4195 on 27.01.2018 in utkal express (18478) with pnr no. [protected] from nizamuddin to tatanagar station. When i enquired on 30.01.2018 in tatanagar station, got information that bike not loaded yet from nizamuddin.
            On 02.02.18 got sms on my mobile no. [protected] that bike is loading in train no. 18478 from nzm to tata. When enquired again on 03.02.2018 in tatanagar station got information that it could not be unloaded in tatanagar due to overloading and went to khurda road station and from then my bike is over there and no one is giving information that when i will get my bike.
            This is so frustrating and now i am mentally harassed as i return back to delhi without delivering my bike to brother.

                    I'm travelling in train no 12970 jaipur coimbatore express today from chennai and got into ladies compartment at the rear end of the train since there was only one ladies compartment at the end. When i got in to the compartment i saw a big crowd of gents and ladies. Gents had occupied most of the seats in upper and lower births. I asked them to give seat for my mother and myself and informed them that it is ladies compartment. They argued that its not. I asked them to look at the board. Then they said even if its written as ladies its not meant for only ladies and they refused to get up. I called the rpf toll free number and talked to one person he asked me to check for a guard and i gave the phone to a guard who was passing by. They talked each other for a while. I conveyed him the issue and he asked me to adjust as there is no ladies in through trains. So i asked him the purpose of the board and this specific compartment. He started shouting at me and asked the gents and ladies to adjust and he said nothing can be done. So many lady passengers are standing here including myself. I understood that there is no use for the ladies compartment in our indian railway and rules are different for different trains. Iam feeling so ashamed to travel like this. Being a lady iam feeling so embarassed. There is no right for ladies to question and no use for the so called rpf and other authorities. If the rule he said is correct then i request indian railway to please remove the board 'ladies' and make it as general.

                    I have posted photos from inside of the ladies compartment as a proof for my complaint.An old lady passenger is sitting on the floor.since the compartment is so crowded i couldn't take a photo from outside of the compartment. Please note that Im not against gents who are my co travellers. I'm just worried about the privacy and our rights to travel in ladies compartment that every lady travellers deserve in the second class.

                        Dear sir,

                        This is to bring to your kind notice about the pathetic condition of the pune local service. There are few things that have really concerned me which are highlighted below:

                        1) i am a regular first class passenger in the local train between talegoan dabhade to shivaji nagar. Now a days, the train is overcrowded in the first class compartment also and many unauthorised passengers holding second class tickets or even without tickets travel in first class compartments. There is practically no checking at all. I have not seen any tc's or any other officers checking tickets in the first class which results in many unwanted passengers boarding the train. I have seen many drunk people sleeping in the seats without any fear, also there have been many reports of pick pockets in the first class. Many times one can see unauthorised passengers sitting and genuine ticket holders standing. After 6 pm i have seen railway employees telling people to board the first class compartment as other compartments are crowded. During peak time the first class is as crowded as the general compartment and i have also seen many college kids enjoying hanging near the enterance and sitting comfortably when asked i was told that tc's dont come in first class.

                        2) many unauthorised railway employees (Even the class iv and kalasi) people are travelling in first class compartment and many times sitting while passengers who genuinely pay huge amount stand in the crowd on the corridors.

                        It is sad to see the state in which the once great indian railway has fallen too. I understand that you might be short staffed but this shouldn't stop your employees to atleast check the first class compartment once a day. If a guy who pays 10rs for a ticket or without ticket is seating in first class why am i paying for the first class ticket. When a drunk can sleep on the entire seat who is to stop someone from stealing or stabbing anyone if they know one is there to punish them. This is a serious concern to the safety of the passengers and for the money that we pay. I really don't want to pay for a first class ticket when i see people paying 10rs and enjoying the same comfort.

                        I have seen many complains have been registered regarding this but no action has been taken i guess pune railway board would need to homicide to wake them up. Until something happens no one wakes up that the sad truth about humans now a days. It is best to just not travel by local if the government just expects you to pay the fair and not pay any attentions to the safety of the public. I am going to consider not travelling in first class and i recommend everyone to do the same or indian railway should remove the first class compartment so that everyone is one the same playing field.

                          The escalators are not working in the chintadripet station for the past 3 months to my knowledge. It is very pathetic to see people walking on the escalator. The entire railway station seems to have a poor maintenance. The entire place looks unclean. This may seem to be a small problem but every small issues causes large ones. The station is just 20 yrs old but it will get worn out if it is not maintained properly. I dont know whether proper maintenance is done but as a common man i feel it is poorly maintained.

                            Complaint Reference Number : W/CR/BSL/[protected] without giving the proper response they closed the ticket after 20days but doesn't give me resolution... When I call the bhim app they said the money was transfered to ICICI Bank rail account ending with 436... The railway giving the system to pay online and also with this doing frauds I am very unsatisfied with this service by Indian rail also and officers who are solving cases if someone not known anything about what he will do... I am waiting from 20days but yet the case not solve

                              My purse was stolen in train no 14207 padmavat express around 2:30 to 3:00 am on 3rd feb 2018 while i was asleep. It had 14000 rupees and all my cards and adhaar card.
                              It is so disheartening to know that even if you travel in 2nd ac it is not safe at all.
                              There was no attendent in the train. Nowdays they just take little money and give seat to anyone just like that. Same happened with us. Some random person was given seat and he took advantage and stole my purse while i was asleep.

                              Please look into this.

                                I have travelled to katpadi jn. On 03/02/2018 by bhagmati express from mysuru jn with family. Of three by train no.12578, in 3rd ac coach, berth nos.41, 44, &45. After reaching jolarpet jn. By 12.30. P. M. The speed of the train came down drastically to meagre10 kms for about 2 1/2 hrs. There was none to explain the reasons for the delay and there was no announcements. They could have used coach sound speakers for the reason and ease the tension of the fellow passengers who have to take some important business and etc. Etc., the train reached katpadi jn after the delay of 2 1/2 hrs.

                                      Hence i loss an amount of 1455/- whole ticket.
                                      1) why indian railways partially confirmed only a ticket and make suffering whole family like this?
                                      2) why did not eligible to get wait-listed passengers refund, even train departured, even later on chart prepared for not allocated berths??
                                      3) why indian railways couldn't reverse the amount to originate source if services not provided?
