Indian Railways Complaints & Reviews

I purchased two general tickets and requested seat reservations from the TTE. He requested 700 rupees, which we paid, and he issued a receipt. However, he failed to provide seats or assistance after accepting the payment. Additionally, he charged extra without explanation. I urge you to take action against the TTE and refund my money.

Details of Complaint:
Name: T P Venkataraman Age 82 Ph[protected] email [protected]@yahoo.com
Travelled to Chennai In HA1 Coach. Informed by station master office that the coach is 3rd one from engine in Platform 1. There was sign of designation for stoppage of coaches in that platform such as 1, 2, 3 etc from engine which I followed and waiting in designated place for 3rd coach. But when train entered the platform, it stopped in place with 3 bogies ahead of designated place. ( ie engine stopped in the place marked 4 ) All people including senior citizens like me had to run quite a distance and try to board the train just because the train did not stop in designated place . This created lot of confusion, stampede mental agony and physical hardship and breathlessness as the train stop only for 2/3 minutes here. Some passengers had to enter nearest bogie and walk quite a distance inside train with luggage. The reason for such stoppage i was told is that the number allotted for designated place is for Pothigai which has three coaches more than Silamban. So Silamban engine stopped ahead. This is stupid and NON SENSE because the number designated are w r t engine and it remains same whether it is Silamban or pothigai. Engine is supposed to stop in its designated place and people will have no problem. Only thing is in Silamban you may have three coaches in the last designated place. Such an in efficient service is NOT Expected by railways in era of Bullet train/Vande Bharat days of Sri Modijis Regime. I strongly condemn and this kind of service is not expected for passengers including Senior citizens.

Date of Incident- 17th Feb 2024
Train - Silamban Express (20682) Departure 17.05 from Thenkasi station to Chennai
Name- T P Venkataraman - [protected]. Age-82 Years
Description of incident- Me along with more than 10/15 passengers were standing in the designated place of Platform 1 in Thenkasi station for boarding into train in compartment HA1/A1 etc. The places for standing bogies have been marked in the platform which we followed Viz. 1, 2, 3 etc. When enquired in station master office I was told that HA1 bogie is third one from engine and we were standing in place marked 3. But when the train came, the engine stopped 3 bogies much before the earmarked place making all passengers including senior citizens like me to run and rush to get into train with short period of two/three minutes stop. This made all o[censored]s to have a lot of mental agony in addition to physical strain and hard breathing at this age. some passengers have to get into nearest bogie ( for want of time) and walk inside train with luggage with great difficulty to reach their designated bogie. The reason for such stoppage I was told is that those markings are for Pothigai which has 22 bogies and NOT for Silamban which has only 18 Bogies. This is NONSENSE because whether Pothigai or Silamban "3rd bogie from engine" remains same. The engine SHOULD Stop only in its designated place and all corresponding bogies from engine will stop in its place If at all any change Last three identified places may not have bogie. In the era of Bullet Train & Vandhe Bharath Train in Sri Modi's Regime can this simple discipline not be implemented by Railways?? Your response to immediately correct this situation is highly appreciated as I am a frequent traveler to Thenkasi from Chennai Please let me know you action . My email ID is [protected]@yahoo.com.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to bring your attention to a situation that occurred during my recent travel booking with Indian Railway.

On [Date 13th jan 24], I had made a train reservation for [Train Name/Number 12294] departing from PRYG prayagraj to LTT Unfortunately, due to the sudden onset of COVID-19 symptoms, I was unable to undertake the journey as scheduled. In light of this, I immediately initiated the Ticket Deposit Receipt (TDR) process through the Maine railway website to request a refund for the unused ticket.

However, to my dismay, my TDR request no[protected] was rejected by Indian Railway. The reason provided for the rejection was that the TDR process was not initiated at least 4 hours before the train departure. I would like to clarify that I consulted my healthcare professional to understand the necessary steps to be taken in such circumstances. Unfortunately, I was not aware of the specific timeline within which the TDR process needed to be initiated.

Considering the unforeseen circumstances and the genuine reason behind my inability to initiate the TDR process within the stipulated time frame, I kindly request you to reconsider my case and process the refund for the unused ticket. I understand that Indian Railway has its policies and procedures, but I sincerely hope that you will take into account the exceptional circumstances surrounding this situation.

I have attached all the relevant documents, including my train ticket, medical certificate, and any other supporting documents, for your reference and verification. I would be grateful if you could review my case and refund the applicable amount at your earliest convenience.

I appreciate your understanding and prompt attention to this matter. I have always had a positive experience with Indian Railway, and I trust that you will handle this situation with the utmost professionalism and empathy. I look forward to a favorable resolution to this issue.
