Indian Railways Complaints & Reviews

Is there some one to protect us from the gangs. There is one gang on each gate in wester line

please protect us from gangs who occupy the enterance in local trains. they sit, relax at the enterance at both side and do not allow passengers to board in and squeeze the people who are in the train so that they can sit at the train enterance.

Dear Sir / Madam,

I had booked Two E-Tickets through Jain Travels (Agent Name: NILESHJAIN) (WL-IRCTC’s e-Ticketing Service) From-AHMEDABAD–To-CHENNAI with two different boarding’s one is From: AHMEDABAD JN (ADI) To: WARDHA JN (WR) and second one is From: WARDHA JN (WR) To: CHENNAI CENTRAL (MAS) as continuous journey.

The first boarding got confirmed tickets & their details are given below:
From: AHMEDABAD JN (ADI) To: WARDHA JN (WR)
Transaction ID: [protected] PNR No : [protected]
Train No. & Name: 2655 / NAVJEEVAN EXP
Date of Journey: 06-Mar-2010 Distance: 0878 KM
Sr No. Name Age Sex Booking Status/Current Status/Coach No./ Seat No.
1. R MUDLIYAR 69 MALE CONFIRME/ S7 / 0025 / LB
2. D MUDLIYAR 60 FEMALE CONFIRME/ S7 / 0025 / LB

The second boarding got waitlisted tickets & their details are given below:
From: WARDHA JN (WR) To: CHENNAI CENTRAL (MAS)
Transaction ID: [protected] PNR No : [protected]
Train No. & Name: 2655 / NAVJEEVAN EXP
Date of Journey: 06-Mar-2010 Distance: 1015 KM
Sr No. Name Age Sex Booking Status/Current Status/Coach No./ Seat No.
1. R MUDLIYAR 69 MALE CKWL 3 / CKWL 3 // 0000/
2. D MUDLIYAR 60 FEMALE CKWL 4 / CKWL 4 // 0000/

Both o[censored]s (Senior Citizen) started our journey on 06-Mar-2010 and travelled upto WARDHA JN comfortably as the tickets were confirmed. Thereafter at midnight 01:30 Hrs. T.C. (Ticket Checker) has informed us that the ticket From: WARDHA JN (WR) To: CHENNAI CENTRAL (MAS) is still waiting list and traveling with this ticket attract penalty. He thereafter charged Rs. 1000/- as penalty for such offence as per Indian railway rules. (The receipt issued by T.C. is enclosed) However, on my inquiry with the booking agent, I have been informed that the ticket status was confirmed and no money has been refunded back to the agent by railways as was being done in care o[censored]nconfirmed tickets and as per IRCTC rules.

As per the policy of Indian Railway where the wait-list e -tickets will be automatically cancelled after chart preparation. Technically it is right thing to do. If your ticket is still wait-listed after chart preparation then you are without ticket anyway! So by-default all WL e-tickets are considered to be cancelled. IRCTC Customer Care Support also confirmed that were not cancelled and was confirmed ticket.

In view of the above, I feel that the attitude of T.C. who has charged penalty without verifying the actual position is questionable, unjustified and giving harassment to Senior Citizen like me.

I request you to please look into the matter and refund me the penalty of Rs.1000/- charged by the T.C. at the earliest as possible.

Thanking you,

Even after 7 months of filing the TDR, I have not received any refund from Indian Railways. Helpline numbers of IRCTC also do not attend any calls. Please help me

I was travelling on 24.9.2011 by 13465 Howrah Malda Intercity Express (PNR [protected]) with VRM in my mobile as per information in IRCTC site (Reference : Railway Board Letter No.2008/TG-I/10/P/SMS dated 20.07.2011 ). When I produced the VRM alongwith my PAN card to TTE Mr. S. Roy, he reacted for showing mobile phone and demanded Rs. 50 for not having E ticket print out. I had tried to show the screenshot of IRCTC screen displaying "appeal to Passengers for not taking print out and carrying VRM' but he denied to see and said that talk to IRCTC for the circular, not him as this is not in railway rule and what he was saying is final. He warnd me to detrain and hand over to police if I argue further. To get rid of further harrasment, I had to pay Rs. 50 as demanded (Receipt no. 003294)
It is surprising that there is so vast lack of communication and coordination between railways and IRCTC and passengers are becoming victim even after having valid ticket and being environment friendly or there is hidden pact to increase income of railway by cheating passengers in this way.
I urge to find the root of this communication gap and demand apology from the defaulter alongwith refund of Rs. 50 charged by unauthorised means.

Indian Railways — harassment made to me by Indian Railways

We had booked our journey ticket from Vizianagram to Howrah on 10.06.2008. Boarding at Vizianagram, PNR no[protected], date of journey 12.07.2008, train no 2864, Yeshwantpur-Howrah Exp. In the month of June the train was getting diverted from vijaywada station due to rain. Indian railway has assured that everything would be normal by 1st of July and later it was extended upto 10th of july. therefore we were assured that we would be able to catch the train as per schedule. after 10th of July we started enquiring about the whereabout of that particular train but at the same time different station enquiry was giving different information regarding the train. Even we were informed that the train would be going to go its normal rout from 11th. But on 12th i.e. the journey date we came to know from Vizag enquiry that the train would not be coming to that very station. We have no choice but to go to nearby Koraput station and cancel the train ticket. But when we went to Koraput station, even at that time also in computer it was fed that the train is running in its normal rout! We forced them to make call at various stations from control room and after several information they got assurance that the train is already diverted. But after that also they were unable to refund us the full money, which should be as per rule of Indian Railway because online computer was showning normal route and no diversion of the train. We not only harased by Railway because of lack of proper information but also suffered from monetory loss.
IF THE BIGGEST INDUSTRY OF INDIAN GOVT. WILL SHOW THIS TYPE OF NEGLIGENCE AND HARASS NORMAL PEOPLE THEN SOMEONE TELL ME WHO WILL RELY INDIAN RAILWAY!

Sub: Complaint against corrupt TTE.

Dear Sir,
My son K.Vikram, 20 yrs was travelling from Jhansi JN(JHS) to Yesvantpur JN(YPR) on 10.01.2010 vide his confirmed Ticket (transaction ID: [protected].) The details are:

PNR No. [protected]
Train No. 2650 / KTK SMPRK K EXP
Booking status: Confirm/S2/0060/LB
Class: SL
Quota : Tatkal.
Date of Journey: 10- Jan-2010
Date of Boarding: 10-Jan-2010.

The concerned TTE ( name- unknown ) did not allow him to sit in his confirmed seat from Bhopal upto Nagpur for about 6 hrs, as the corrupt TTE allotted the seat to a RAC ticket holder by misusing his official power. At Nagpur, the RAC ticket holder gets down there. Thereafter, my son was allowed to take his reserved seat from Nagpur only.

Request to take appropriate action against such corrupt and insincere Official (the particular TTE ) to prevent from such unfair activities in future.

Yours sincerely

K.Nabakishore Singh.
