This is to inform & complain that the wifi service in Rajdhani Express (12306 & 12301 ) is turned off but still Indian Railways is claiming that WIFI service is provided across in Rajdhani's also the quality of food is detoriating day by day ! can railways not choose a different caterer than IRCTC as IRCTC is running a monopoly buisness .

i m trying to open www.irctc.co.in from my desktop pc since last month .my ip is 192.168.1.33 but unable to reach to irctc website .ping response is also not possible .after traceroute it is showing after traceroute it observed that it is reaching upto 210.212.69.34/24 after that request time out is coming.

Even if we observe for 5 mins, 40 seats disappear and then they charge a Sleeper Coach ordinary class worth rs 600 at a cost higher than 1300. So for 3 passengers normal tatkal charges would cost 1800 approx, while premium tatkal tickets would cost me higher than AC tickets. There are 25 trains running from Delhi to Gorakhpur but every train shows immediate packup in all classes. If I consider in Tatkal booking, it shows waiting list from the time the reservation window online is available. So much of corruption is happening inside railways which is not visible to the common public either waiting in queues or trying to book online. Every train is packed with vested interests quota so even if our PM says they would install Cameras - it is of no use because the real corruption is happening behind the doors either through agents or other beneficiary parties. Railways force us to buy waiting list tickets and do not show realistic data in PNR status. They force us to go for Tatkal option - which now shows waiting list from the 1st minute of opening online. Premium Tatkal gets full by 30% of seats in the 1st 3-4 mins of opening and then they start charging higher and higher from[protected] to 6000 INR for an ordinary sleeper class tickets. Travelling by air is better option then choosing railways but how to convince our old parents because they feel the risk in travelling by air as unsafe and they prefer only trains for journey. Can this consumer court really do something in this regard. Worst victim of corruption are Indian passengers who get only Diwali holidays to visit their home towns and the internal staff or higher authorities are doing something wrong for sure. They have all the control and they make us dance to their tunes as always. Don't update chart status time to time and also not showing actual data. Force maximum cancellation of tickets and they get cancellation charges Force maximum sale of tickets through tatkal because reservation status would show actual status just 4 hours before departure. Now they have divided tatkal to Premium tatkal and have started blocking 50% of tatkal tickets from the opening time of tatkal timings. While Premium tatkal tickets they start blocking 25% and then they start charging[protected] for a Sleeper Class ticket for 3 persons. We are fed up with politicians giving strong messages to the nation but nothing to contribute in return. Everybody promises corruption but they have no control on people and government officials

Dear Sir, I jaishankar Gupta, Boarded Train no 15483(Mahananda express ) from Hasimar for Buxar with My Sister-in-law on 14th July 2014. Vie Ticket no:[protected], Bearth no-S11(49, 50) Around 2 am when we were sleeping suddenly a antisocial people came and snatched the purse from My sister-in-law which contained Rs.10000 as cash, one gold chain and some small silver ornaments. After snatching the purse thief jumped from the running train. After that I pulled up the train chain to stop the train and train got stopped but non of the railway staff or RPF /GRPF came for support or enquiry . This accident happened near Maheshkunt. When we reached Tilakrath than I approached to the train guard to complain about the incident occurred with us but the Guard denied to register my complain and did not gave the complain book to write the details. When we reached New Barauni again we approached to New train guard but he also dined to register any complain. When we reached Buxar we approached SHO Mr.Ram Prabodh Yadav to register our complain but he completely ignored and harassed us. Same thing happened when we reached to Assistant Station master In buxar also he denied to give us the complain book and suggested us to pull the train chain again and again where the incident took place and railway staff would have come. Now the fact is “ Thief and antisocial people are doing jobs their job perfectly but our Railway staff and the care taker of passengers are behaving like Mad barbarians. Thanks & Regards, Jaishankar Gupta. [protected]

I was travelling from guwahati to lumding on the 7th of October 2014 by B.G.Express in A.C 2 tier where I was very badly harassed by the ticket conductor. He asked me about my authority and I said I had a ticket, without even bothering to check my ticket he insisted me on moving to the three tier, even after telling many times that I had a ticket, he didn't listen. My father who is a retired railway officer also told him that I had a ticket but he was arrogant. Once he understood that I had a ticket, he started bullying that I had bought Indian Railway by just buying one ticket. Another fellow from a separate compartment came in support of him and threatened me of stopping the train and calling the local hooligans. On asking the name, the ticket conductor claimed himself as Mr. Dilip Mohanta. The other person even bullied me in his local language. It's really become humiliating to travel by railway train nowadays. I plead that some action be taken immediately in order to make the situation more comfortable for passengers to travel. I have attached a proof where he didn't even look at my ticket and sign it even Thanking you, Nayanava De Amadeus Software labs India Pvt.
