I, alongwith my family visited Mumbai from Delhi on 26.12.2008 in August Kranti Rajdhani (2953) (PNR no. [protected]). In the dinner served a dead mosquito was found in salad. The matter-paneer vegetable was half cooked and the peas were quite hard to eat. There was no water in Indian style tiolet throuhout and the western style toilet was not getting latched in as such both the toilets were not useable. The coach attendent was requested to call the manager or bring the complaint book but he didnot turn up. A feedback form was filled up but he same was trashed by the attendent.

I returned by the same train from Mumbai to Delhi on 04.01.2009 (PNR no. [protected]). The coach was extremely dirty and a rat was observed in the train right in the compartment. The panels, sides, roofs, curtains etc were extremely dirty, it seemed that these were not cleaned since long. The toilet walls were also extremely dirty.
The overall experiance in the Rajdhani Train was very poor.

Indian Railways — Theft in Mumbai Rajdhani

On 17 Dec, I and my wife along with our daughter were going from Mumbai to Delhi via Rajdhani Exp. We were in B8 coach. We were happy that we are going to meet our parents. My wife went to sleep on berth # 72, after Ratlam at around 12 in night, and at around 0130 HRS, she realized that someone has stole her handbag which contained jewels worth more than 1.5 lac. When she raised alarm, every body got up. But to my surprise, coach attendant was sleeping. We woke him up, but in place of doing any thing, he took me to Dy. T.C., who also was sleeping. We woke him up also. He simple took out pen and FIR application and started filling that out.

When I asked him that is there any police man or GRP in the train, he simply denied and told me that in Kota station GRP will come search the coach.

In Kota, on 2 GRP personnel came, who started asking me how much amount of money and jewelery was there in bag. The other GRP person was talking on wireless and telling every detail to the person on the other end.

When train started from Kota, I asked Dy. T.C. that where is the GRP, he told me that he informed the GRP and they did not come. When I tried to pull the chain, he asked me not to do that as GRP is in other coach and they will be coming here. After around 5 mins, when I asked about GRP, he told me that he has to see where they are. He left and then returned back with one constable after 5 mins who was in 1st AC. When we asked him to search the coach, he told us that it’s too late and he will do that in the morning. That constable simply left from the coach. Then Dy. T.C. handed over the FIR which was signed by Kota GRP and he also left and went to sleep.

Then coach attendant also left and went in other coach to sleep. In this whole incidence, no body even helped us. They were trying to escape from their duty and no one did any thing. I have no answer to any questions like:

• Why coach attendant was sleeping in corner?
• Why T.C. was not interested in searching the bag but he was more interested in filing the FIR?
• Why did he tell me lie that GRP will come and search the coach?
• Why did he tell me the GRP is in some other coach when there were no GRP personnel?
• What is the security for general public in such a good train?
• Whose responsibility is to handle the robbery or theft in the train?
• How can any person who is not a passenger enter into Rajdhani?
• What is the assurance that it was not stole by any railway staff/contractor?
• What is the responsibility of GRP? Is it to help general public or to rob them and take their share from robbers?


Although we cried a lot and asked them repeatedly to help and search the coach, no body like coach attendant, Dy. T.C., GRP came to help us. It seems that they were connived with each other and hence were more concern for their share of money than helping us. Please take serious action on these people and try to help us to get our belongings back.

If this is the kind of security or the response from police general people will get, then how can they feel secure in their own country? This might be just one incidence which I am trying to report through your news channel but there might be hundreds of thousands of cases which might go unnoticed or unreported.

Using your channel as medium, I wanted to let every body in this country know that there are no safety measures in Railways and you will find crooks everywhere. Just because anybody is going by Rajdhani, doesn’t make him more secure or more relax person as it can happen to anybody anywhere.

It has been more than 15 days and despite being giving the written complaints, nobody has taken any action. For a middle class person, this loss is huge. I have suffered a lot due to this theft. I would like to request every body to take utmost care of their belongings while travelling. As Indian Railway can never raise from the level it was 50 years ago. It is still in the same place as of that time. Nobody will come to your help. GRP is just for the namesake. They are good for nothing. Every body is busy for getting their share of money from the robbery.Still they call India as JAI HIND...
I found the Bangalore-Ernakulam express to be equally very dirty.With tiny cockroaches, remanant of food on the window base. In fact everything about the Indian Rail is stinking and dirty. What makes the Indians live in filth? You see a beautiful villa and next to it is the slum. Being a Singaporean Indian, i am ashamed to read comments from the tourist in some of the blogs.WHEN WILL INDIA DO SOMETHING ABOUT CLEANLINESS and GETTING RID OF THE OLD TRAIN SYSTEM. Will it take another 20 years for India to be a clean city?
Sir,

The train number 4005 (LICHCHAVI EXP) is running too much late these days.
It was running timely when starting from Samastipur. Now train has been extended to Sitamarhi, after that journey from this train to Delhi has become headache. Now train is running 10-12 hours late regularly when coming from Samastipur to New Delhi.

Why railway administrator is not taking care of this train?
May I expect the train will run on time.

Thanks

HI I am kunal and m agree with them as we need more to do to clean train nd surroundings.it is good for us as well as for tourist.Indian train are very slow also.we need to modernise it also.pasangers are puuting there money as well as time for travel so they need comfort and safe journey.railway ministers should not only think about progress of their own state.they are working for indian railways not for one state.moreover we are equally responsible for dirt around the train as we just feel we are the king and to clean is duty of railway staffs.more awareness and less rush in train can solve all these problems.
i have had similar experiences.
i was travelling in rajdhani exp from nagpur to delhi in 2nd AC coach.
the food was aweful and there were bed bugs in the bed sheets.
the staff was rude and also demanded tip.
i wonder if anything happens if we file complaints again them.
Food is not good, not tasty, , the vendors they only bring only tea and not other items...and tea contains no or very less milk and chalo dudh nehi dalte hain to kam se kam chini to dal do wo bhi nehi hota hai...plesse do some thing for this...and there is more problem more trains should be started as no room problem is very frequent...
I feel sorry for ur loss, but I am amazed that same thing happened with my friend, between 12 to 2 am her purse was stolen, it contained lots of money and jewellery. she said perhaps in ratlam somebody may have come and stolen it. they pulled chain in kota, asked police but no help.

Thanking You

Venkatesh Jagatap
shaktipunj express is really dirty which runs from jabalpur to howrah.
the washbasins have no or very less water and sometimes the water provided is very dirty too
the toilet walls are pale and look like they have not been cleaned for years .
foul smell always come out from the toilet but they never bother to clean it.
the train stops at the middle of forests and gets just too late.
the train food is so stale and ugly to eat.
sometimes the fan does not work so one has to just tolerate the scorching sun and also the lights are too dim for anyone to read.
the compartments are really dirty and the seats never gets cleaned.
the window panes have dirty yellow patches and are so very dirty to touch.
thefts are also there so no one can be very sure for his footwears.
PLZ DO SOMETHING GOOD FOR THIS TRAIN

Indian Railway — food

i was a traveller from Kottayam to Bangalore by Kochuveli express, the food supplied in the train is so hopeless. There is no proper checking of the quality of the food. The qualiaty control must be activated properly.
I was bed ridden due to severe stomach ache and loose motion for 4 days.
after taking vegetable pulav from the Railway kitchen. My sister who travelled on Ernakulm Express on 29th Morning also had similar problem after taking fried rice.
Too much vendors are entering the compartment with food items, shouting and disturbing during the sleeping time.
TTR not taking care o[censored]nauthorized passengers in reservation compartments who occupy the reserved seats and disturbing the passengers.
Hi, as tired by the food quality from pantry I tried food from http://merafoodchoice.com/ and was happy about my decision
I am completly agree wiith you. I also faced the same problem. Then my friend suggesed me travelkhana to book food online.I really appreciate their services and food quality is too good.I think you should try once.

    Dear Sir,
    Good Morning,
    I am an advocate practicing at Distt. Court, Sonepat. Today on 18-01-09 morning 0620 hrs I gone to Sonepat Railway station to see off my friend. when we reached to booking window towards westren side of the station, there was a long que of passengers waiting for booking clerk to open the booking window. all these passengers were in que for taking tickets for a local train from sonepat to Dehli departure time of the train was 0645 Hrs. the booking clerk did not open the window for issuing tickets despite of requests from passengers. When one of the passenger asked the booking clerk that why he is not opening the window, the booking clerk shouted on him saying that he will open the tickets after 10 minutes. the passengers requested that they would miss the train in that case. the booking clerk again shouted that it is them whose train will be missed and he started altercating with the passengers in place of opening the booking. he used very abusive language to the passengers and even threatened them to hit with a bat he was having in his cabin. Lastly after few minutes when all the passengers started shouting the booking clerk opened the ticket window. I was shocked with the behaviour of the booking clerk. Due to his adament behaviour more than 15 passengers had to travel without ticket as meanwhile the train was about to depart. the booking clerk by his behaviour not only spoiled the image of Indain Railways but has also caused loss to railway and has also forced the passengers to travel without ticket. Please take appropriate action against the booking clerk so that he can be restrained from causing further damages to the railway and the public. Thanking you.

      I had confirmed booking in 2946, Tapti Ganga Exp. from Itarsi Jn. to Vyara on 15/01/2009 (PNR No. [protected]). When on 15th morning I inquired in 139 about the running status of the train, the system informed me that the train was running 02.10 hours late and hence will reach Itarsi Jn by 09.00 hour instead of 06.50 hour. I inquired for several times between 06.30 hour to 07.30 hour. All the time the response was same. But, when I reached the station by 08.30 hour, I came to know that the train has already left the station by around 08.00 hour.
      I was harassed unnecessarily because of the faulty system of Indian railway; was embarrassed before the railway staffs, who were trying to prove that it was my mistake to believe in their system; and has been financially affected as my e-ticket could not be canceled. Even at my request, I was not permitted to travel some other train in sleeper class also, though I had booking in 3rd AC.
      I registered a complain to the DSM(C) Itarsi, though I really doubt if any help could be offered to me by THE GREAT INDIAN RAILWAY.

When on 28th afternoon I inquired in 139 about the running status of the train, the system informed me that the train was running 40 minutes late and hence will reach Rourkela by 17.30 and depart at 17.52 instead of 17.10. I inquired for several times between 15.30 hour to 17.00 hour. All the time the response was same. But, when I reached the station by 17.35 hour, I came to know that the train has already left the station by around 17.35 hour.

      The services of 139 is very very very very poor. One can not get any information from this number. Earlier there were three nos. 1330, 1335 and 125050. These numbers were working satisfactorily. But now you can not get any information even after departure of the train. why Railway administration is silent about this ?

        Hi,

        Mr. Jogender Kumar (ID card serial no. 256178) of the railways is indulging in corrupt practices without the fear of law at New Delhi railway station.

        I had approached the Ajmeri Gate platform counter for a platform ticket but was informed that no PF tickets are required till 31st January for entering the station. As I was coming out from the station, the above mentioned officer accosted me & demanded a bribe of Rs. 100/= for non-production of PF ticket. Upon my refusal to bribe him, he issued a challan for ticketless travel even when I reproduced the parking ticket of my vehicle & informed him that I had tried to buy the PF ticket. When I insisted for the challan to state the charge as being "Non-production of PF ticket";he simply refused & requested a lady to issue the challan.

        I'm appalled at his audacity wherein he publicly demands for bribes & misuses official powers. I hope some good shall come out by highlighting this corrupt practice & my fellow citizens shall not have to face the same fate at his hands in future.

        SUBJECT: GRIEVANCES FOR PROVIDING FACILITIES TO THE PASSENGERS TRAVELING IN THE NORTHERN RAILWAYS

        R/Madam,

        With due respect, we here by submit the following points on the above noted subject for your favourable consideration & early n/action please.
         FOR STARTING A NEW EXPRESS TRAINS & ADDING EXTRA COACHES FOR GENERAL PUBLIC ON DELHI-AMRITSAR ROUTE
        Your goodself is reqested to start a new Janta express train for general type of passengers (without any reservation/sleeper coaches) from Delhi to Amritsar & back; which is very essential on this route, as all other express trains on this route are overcrowded, which are having a few general coaches, as a result of which, passengers especially, like senior citizens, children & ladies feel inconvinience& some times got injured in traveling. To overcome this difficulty please start a new Janta Express Train (without any reservation coaches) for general passengers & further requested to add/increase four to five general coaches with express trains running on this route so as to avoid / check havvy rush in the express trains.
         FOR EXTENDING NEW EXPRESS TRAINS LIKE GARIB-RATH & JAN_SHATABDI ON DELHI-AMRITSAR ROUTE.
        Keeping in view the difficulties faced by the general public, due to havvy rush of passengers in the trains, we further request to start / extend new trains between Delhi & Amritsar & back, namely GARIB-RaTH & JAN-SHATABDI, alikewise these trains already ply on the route between Delhi & Chandigharh.
         TO REGULARIZE / MAKE DAILY SERVICE OF TRAIN NO.4037 UP & 4038 DOWN (DELHI-PATHANKOTE EXPRESS)
        Yourgoodself is requested, keeping in view the above explained situation, to regularize daily the train no. 4037 UP & 4038 DOWN(Delhi-Pathankote) express & make its daily service, instead of on alternate days, as running now.This can be easily done as UP & DOWN side both trains are different, alikewise of other express trains ; like MALWA, DADAR etc.trains.
         TO CUT SHORT THE ROUTE OF SAHID EXPRESS (PREVIOUSLY FLYING MAIL EXPRESS )
        Sahid express train is plying / running between Bihar state - some station to Amritsar & usually this train becomes late for many hrs due to long distance.
        So, this train route may be cutshort to run between Delhi & Amritsar only, to restore its previous route
         RESERVATION IN THE WAITING LIST



        We have generally noted, that while getting reservation of seats in the trains like SHANE-PUNJAB (train no.2497 up & 2498 down ) etc., waiting list is reached upon to 400 numbers, in that case railways generally charge reservation charges from passengers without making any arrangements / adding extra coaches for their sittings, as a result passengers feel inconvinience, due to nonavailability of seats, we suggest alternatively to allow such type of passengers(waiting list) to travel in other trains or add extra coaches, failing which railways should not issue reservation tickets on the waiting .
         EXEMPTION /REDUCTION OF FINE FOR NOT HOLDING SUPERFAST CHARGE TICKET & MAKING ITS AVAILABILITY ON THE PLATFORM
        ITSELF (FROM MACHINES, BOOTHS ETC.)

         MAKING PROPER ARRANGEMENTS OF WATER & CLEANLINESS IN THE RAILWAYS

         MAKING ARRANGEMENTS FOR TOILETS IN THE E.M.U. ELECTRIC TRAINS AS SR. CITIZENS, LADIES & CHILDREN ESPECIALLY BADLY SUFFER IN ADDITION TO OTHER PASSENGERS.
         ARRANGEMENTS FOR PROVIDING COUPONS, RECEIPTS FOR THE BALANCE AMOUNT(COINS) FROM TICKET WINDOWS IN CASE COINS OR CHANGE OF BALANCE AMOUNT ARE NOT AVAILABLE


        Yourgoodself is requested to kindly go through the above noted points /suggestions & make suitable arrangements to mitigate the hardships faced by the passengers through the current budget being prepared by your govt.& submitting in the parliament in the next month .

        Thanking you in anticipation,
        Yours faithfully,

          I boarded on Bhagirathi Express at berhampur Court(West Bengal) on 30 Dec'08 with a reservation ticket in the morning 6.35 A.M. On reaching Krishnanagar City Station all daily passengers stormed into the reserved compartment and harassed us holding resrevation ticket. The TTE on duty did nothing. what redressal act will be taken by Railway dept for not giving the service for which we paid for?

            I traveled from Mumbai to Calicut by Netravati express on 19th Dec 08 by 2nd AC. From the time i entered to the time i got off the train i saw atleast over 50-60 cockroaches on and around my bearth. They were small but terribly annoying. I was traveling with an infant and so unhappy. Each time i turned my head i saw a cockroach right by my sholder...my gosh it was so creepy...

            I have been proud of the railway system in our country. The food was good but the cleanliness was extremely poor. As a customer when i pay for a 2nd AC seat i do want to travel with comfort and not disgust.

            PLEASE KEEP OUR TRAINS CLEAN AND FREE OF INSECTS AND PESTS.

              This incident happened on 13th Jan 2009 at Kollam Jn, Kerala while
              Me and my friends were coming from Chennai in No.2623 Trivandrum mail S5 and booked Talkal e-ticket. Since it was a talkal ticket we booked the ticket as a group ticket from Chennai to Trivandrum, but we needed to get out at different places.
              Me got out at Kollam station and the ticket was with my friend who was going to Trivandrum. when i came to the exit one lady and a gent examiner asked the ticket and i told them its with my friend who is in the train and was a group ticket. they caught my bags and asked me to bring ticket from my friend( actually it was twice checked along the journey). But the train was about to start, i called my friend and he ran from his compartment to show the ticket while train was moving. We asked about the inconvenience but the examiner behaved rudely and harassed us. The examiner hold the ticket with him for questioning him. After few seconds quarrel only my friend got the ticket. At last my friend got the ticket and luckily manged to catch the running train. After train has gone the examiner didn't allowed me to go and told me "now you don't have ticket, going to hand over you to police and you don't have age to talk to me" and he called me thief and harassed me in front of the public. I think that examiner needed bribe..Will I get justice?????
              I want to know do the passengers have any rights to question?
              Are we the servants of railway employees?
              Is it the right to check tickets at railway station after getting out from train? (they can do it in the train).Stop this insensible process!!!
              Who will be responsible if anything happened to my friend who ran to catch the running train??
              Is this is the customer welfare of INDIAN RAILWAY???
              What action can the authorities can do???
              Please do something as soon as possible so that other passengers may not have this experience..

              Respected Rail minsiter ji,
              Dear Sir
              PNR [protected], Date 16/07/08
              I booked my ticket form agra cantt(AGC) to pune through irctc.co.in. As per irctc, waiting listed candidate name will not be appear on chart and those can't Board in train but in my case, name was present on chart at Agra cantt station. TTE not allowed to board in traion then i went to S.S. and told my problum. He said ur name is not there on chart. Again i shown him chart. Name was there. For this He argument with me alot & used some abuse language also but he made charge against me for misbehave & worte a memo to RPF. I faced lot of trouble at agra cantt station. I aksed that person name too but he didn't tell his name any how.
              I talked to irctc person(Customer care)then he told it may due to mistake from railway. We can't do any thing. Any how I missed train & my chance for interview.
              Please Do some thing to upgraded your railway staff behave.

              Thank you Sir

              To,

              The Railway Minister,
              Rail Bhawan, New Delhi

              Subject: Complaint against problem faced during travel in Jammu tawi express dated 8th November 2009 from Jammu tawi to Pune.

              Respected Sir,

              With due respect we Citizen of India, want to bring to your kind attention about the problem we faced during the journey from Jammu tawi to Pune on 8/10/2008 in Jammu Tawi express.

              Following trouble we faced:

              We were total of ten persons (2 families, with our old aged parents, wife and children) and along with us there were other families too. We started our journey from Jammu, we sat in a compartment not having any indication thereon that it was a ladies compartment, and neither there was any guard or police man to tell about that. But on Jalandhar railway station, police started harassing us to vacate the compartment being ladies. They separated we people, when we spoke against that they started using abusive language. It was very difficult for us to manage such a situation in the mid way of journey with our old parents and children.

              We just want to bring to your notice that how the common man who is not the regular traveler on that route will come to know about that. So, we request you to kindly pay attention on our complaint and take necessary action so that passenger would not face these problems in future.

              Your’s truly
              Citizens of India
              We visited from Ludhiana to Tirupati in 3A class by Navyug Express train No. 6688. The date of Journey was 10-Oct-2008. Our PNR No. is [protected] and transaction ID is [protected].I booked this ticket by IRCTCs e-Ticketing Service. After booking the IRCTC delivered a ticket on my e-mail and I taken the printout of that ticket. When we reached at Tirupati station on 12th morning, a lady staff member demand the ticket to see and we shown the ticket and ID card but on that time she was started to say that this ticket is wrong, here is not mentioned the ID card no.. We were requesting to her that this ticket is supplied by IRCTC and you see your record and according to record we are showing the ID card. But she was not listening any thing and some other staff members who were available on duty on that time they were also supporting to her. She was using very rough language. She wasted our 2.30 hours and disturbed us mentally very much. We tries to convince her by many type of efforts, we shows the messages on our mobile sent by railway, we was showing the another ticket on our laptop but she was not ready to see any thing. In mean time we sees that she was doing like this and by another ways with the lot of passengers. It is very bad. I want a good punishment for her.

              my few comments above complaint like that situation passenge only responsible when he going outside he must be show ticket or he consult train tte how can i go outside without ticket. i am not agree above complaint. what tte done correct cause she doing correc duty what railway given.
              because our punjab side tc is not good, most of the cases tc is faulty, because tc ask theperson you go in side the train demanding some money, pessenger pay the money, pessenger isrelaxed then i pay money, but after some time checking staff is came the harrased the person, you have no ticket, if thepasenger says then after your conformation i travell thistrain, the tc ask if proof then passenger issilence. this type harrasment is normal regularlys.,

              but i request to you, the department is public related, so, please see the matter, today is other person harrash, but some time readly person will hrasseh

              ok thanks

              Dear Sir/Mam,


              With Reference to subjected matter, Today (19th Nov. 09'), ASR NDLS EXP :(train no.:-2460 )was their at the plateform at 6:12am against the schedule time of departure at 6:25am, But Guard coach was missing & after having heavy conversation among the staff, guard coach came at 6:52am, because of this mismangement the train was delayed by 35 min. I am daily passanger, and these type of problems are usual problems & every daily passanger is facing the same. No proper information is availble at enquiry window, which creates more hazzels for passangers.

              Kindly look into the matter, and take the necessary action against the subjected matter, so that in future these kind of problems can be avoided.

              Indian Railways — Misbehave to Handicap Child

              I (shailendra yadav) is a physically handicapp child of what I am having my handicapp certificate by govt. Authority. I am writting this as i have been treated badly by the railway police when I was going to take my ticket. The police person saw that i was handicap & also i had told him too , then also he shouted at me & told that I should go from there and come in line as other people who are fit. There was a huge line in counter with physically fit people. So due to my unfitness i can not stand that long. Also on special counter made for us , i was said to go from there. This all incident took place on the raipur junction station of chattisgarh on 22/05/11 (sunday). This not first time i was treated badly by any railway employee, many times this happened. So plz kindly look toward this matter. I could not ask the name of person but i could recognise him if i see him personally.

              Yours faithfull

                I recently travelled in Lokshakti Express and Holiday special train to ahmedabad in 3rd AC and 2nd class respectively, both the bogies had the newly developed side middle berth attached. apart from being extremely uncomfortable for the passengers since the berths are already small in size, they have become more smaller, the Indian Railways also does partiality in terms of givnig different facilities to passengers paying the same amount of fare. For example, there are 9 berths in one coupe in 3rd AC as well as 2nd sleeper class, if you look at the new seating arrangements, on one side 3 passengers are made to sit, on the other side 4 passengers are made to sit, and on the side upper/middle/lower side, 2 passengers are made to sit, so in all there are 9 passengers are made to sit unequally, why should 4 passengers share a seat wherein they have paid the same monies as the 3 passengers who are sharing the opposite seat??? This is absolutely not acceptable from Indian Railways. Also, while booking the new numbers are not announced so once you board the train, there is major confusion and everyone has to wait for the TT to come and assign the new numbers, 9 passengers also means increased luggage and increased capacity for toilets which get dirtier. If railways wants to continue this, then there should be separate charges based on seatnig capacities and berths assigned to passengers or there has to be a new class developed for these kind of bogies. Indian Railways also stands for good service and class with affordability, we cant lose good service and class just so that Central govt can show increased profits on Indian Railways and in the process compromise everything that Indian Railways stands for

                I think we should make the railway minister and all the top officials travel in one of the side middle or side upper births. probably they may realize the difficulties then.

                Rail travel used to be such a pleasure in India, expecially due to the economical fares.. now we have nothing left.. slowly the entire system is going down the drain and probably next step will be cramming the passengers in what ever open space is left till the compartments are packed air tight.

                I pray that better sense prevail and may god give some brains to the administration and that they withdraw this horrendous scheme.
                Its Dangrous and life threating during accidents, very uncomfortable for all, and creates mental agaony. Not to mention the unclean toilets are more smelly and filthy now. Request everyone one who reads this to sign and endorse this complain as well
                now travelling in AC is more like travelling in sleeper class. and specially this side middle berth is a . how difficult it cud be to a tall person to adjust dere. and even if they want to keep this side middle berth, then they can keep low cost for these berths..and the biggest agony is that, u book a ticket in tatkal, already paying extra money and you will get a side middle berth..not done.
                and i cudnt understand why sometime thse side middle berth are functioning and sometimes not.

                  Respected Sir,
                  I would highly appreciate if you take up the following issue.
                  1. I had confirmed railway e-tickets from New Delhi to Jammu Tawi on 16th November, 2008. PNR Nos [protected]; Train No 2445 UTTAR S KRANTI.

                  2. I WAS COMPELLED NOT TO BOARD ABOVE MENTIONED train because OF AVOIDABLE AND UNEXPECTED DELAY of IN COMING TRAIN NO. 2815 PURI EXPRESS. PNR NO. [protected]; WHICH WAS SHEDULED TO ARRIVE AT 5.05PM, BUT DELAYED 4 HOURS IN SPITE OF NO FOG THOSE DAYS.
                  3. I contacted railway authority at New Delhi. But unfortunately, I was not even allowed to use that ticket to board other Jammu Tawi bound train.

                  4. I booke a complaint online in http://dpg.gov.in ; vide Ref. No. DPG/R/2008/80153/(2)(IRCTC); Dated 23/11/2008. who suggested ON 27/11/2008 that The Chairman, Railway Board, Ministry of Railways, Rail Bhawan, New Delhi, has been requested to take apropriate action thereon.

                  BUT TILL DATE NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE
                  I hope you will be kind enough to take the matter seriously Sir and save me from substantial financial loss.

                  Thanking you,
                  Yours faithfully,

                    I boarded on 2317 Sealdah Amritsar Akal Takth from Asansol to Beas on 7th jan '09 and I got the seat no 60, 62, 64 at 3rd AC it was last seat near to door, I found that there is no restruction for anyone(people, beggers, vender) for passing the coach from one end to another. For the safty sake its very dangerous, attender openen the connected door at 6 am, most peoples from another sleeper coaches come for recharging their mobile, and using toilets and make its worse. its make the journey very disturbance. so i think there is no use of spending more amount for journey in AC class when there is no safty and comfort can provided by indian rail. regds satnam

                    Dear Sir,

                    Since we really appreciate all steps that are taken by the Railways for improving conditions in trains and ensuring the satisfactions and, more importantly, the safety of passengers we deem it our duty to bring to your notice all the harassment we faced on the Jagannath Express on the night of June, 23 when we were going to Puri from Balasore witness the Rath Yatra and inaction of the railway and R.P.F. staff who did not respond to our appeal for help.

                    When the train reached Bhadrak station there was complete chaos as hordes of youth ticketless travesser invaded the sleeper compartment and forcibly asked passengers with bonafide tickets and reservations to vacate seats so that they could sit comfortably. In our compartment S 13 we were abused and ill treated by about 25 to 30 young hooligans. It was a nerve-wracking experience for all o[censored]s. At that time I managed at Jakhapura station to put through a call to Cuttack station enquiry No.[protected] and requested that R.P.F. and police staff be alerted to take action at Cuttack but nothing was done. When the train reached Cuttack but nothing was done. When the train reached Cuttack it halted for over 20 minutes but no action was taken even we went to the enquiry and lodged complaints personally.

                    In fact Sir, we found that the railway staff are grossly indifferent to such appeals for help and allow all types of miscreants to harass passenger in a shameless manner. We are deeply aggrieved and we pray that some action is taken after proper inquiry and fixation of responsibility.

                    We also feel during Rath Yatra time R.P.F. staff must be provided in more than full strength in all reserved compartment to deal with hooligans particularly at Bhadrak to Jajpur Road railway station.

                    We will be really happy if action is taken and in future other passengers do not face the harassment and trauma we had to face.

                    Thanking you.

                    Sir,
                    On 28/09/09 I travelled from Ghy to Bolpur by Saraighat Express(Train No.- 2346) on A.C. 2A and my two Tickets was on RAC (Berth no. 45).I was travelling along with my wife and daughter.I do astonish to see how a train can start from Guwahati Station without a T.T.E. throughout the Train.No T.T.E. found till NJP Station, but with that T.T.E. no chart was available as no-body handover the chart.So, from Ghy to NJP though seats was available but as no T.T.E. was available so we had to travell by sitting on that sit only and after that as no chart was available so up to Bolpur I had to take the pain.I had made a writted complain also (Book No.-168, N.F.- SN 86, Serial No.13 dated.-28/09/09). You are taking money from the passenger but why you are not giving the service. I want that you have deduct the money from the T.T.E.s who were absent and I had to bear the pain and have to return to me.If you give punishment to those T.T.E.s then I will feel that these type complain has value.

                      This is the complaint againts the Booking Clerk Mr. AzaguMani, Passenger Reservation Booking counter at Kodaikanal.

                      I went to reservation counter and first greeted him with due respect and submitted a neatly written reservation form with station code.
                      He throwed on my face and asked me to write full station name, not the station code. I smiled and obeyed his order and wrote another form and gave it to him.

                      He shouted at me saying that just for 345 KM ( from KQN to JTJ) you are making a reservation. You are not a passenger and he cursed his job that for passenger like me he has to do reservation and use a computer. He advised me to go in general coach. I slowly explained him it is 7 hours travel that too during night time and I am with two daughters. After much difficulty I had to hear a lot o[censored]ncultured and uncivilized words from him and on repeated request he made reservation and gave the ticket. I was very much ashamed by his treatment infront of my wife and two children.

                      I work as a Lecturer and I know the rules of railway. He treated me like this, then I wonder how he would treat with other fellow passengers who seek help in knowing train name, station code etc.

                      I strongly object the existence of such people who sitting in a responsible place and treating other public so illy.

                      I request the authorities to take severe action againt Mr. Azagumani, Booking clerk at Kodaikanal reservation counter. I am prepared to appear before an enquiry if needed.

                      Thanking you in anticipation.

                        My flight was booked for 6:30 AM on 16th Dec 2012 from Kolkata to Bangalore.
                        I had to travel from Jamshedpur to Howrah and the train was to reach at 3:55 AM but reached only at 5:50 AM.
                        Needless to say I missed the flight and had to book another flight for 18that a very high price.
                        Need the cost reimbursed. Please let me know how to go about the procedure.

And on reaching Bhubaneswar Railway Station I have given a written complain to GRPF but even after 6 to 7 hours waiting they are forwarding complain form one table to another and they have not registered FIR nor general dairy

                          if this is the responsibility & behavior of GRPF why we should go to them????
                          What is their duty???
                          Why they are recruited to help public???
                          Is this public help???
                          Where should we go ????

                            I had cancelled 2 Nos.Tickets for 2616-GT express on[protected] at 17:00 hrs at Ramagundam for the Tickets from Ramagundam-Rajahmundry and Ramagundam-Chennai. The Scheduled time of train is at 18:00 hrs but it was indicated already that the late is > 6 hours. But while canellation they refunded only 50% of the amount. As per the rules they have to refund full amount.
                            Hope Railway official look into the matter and do the needful. The cancelled PNR Nos. are[protected] and[protected].

                                I was coming from Mumbai to Tatanagar by Gitanjali superfast in AC3 Tier dated 29th Dec. 2008.
                                Coaches were so dirty (interrior as well as exterior) that it was not looking like AC coaches. There were side middle birth provision in which seatting is pathetic and it was creating problem to other people in the compartment to sit.
                                After paying good fair, I expect railway to improve upon cleanliness of coaches and hygine factor must improve. The coach B1 was so old that it was looking unsafe and very dull in apperance. I request railway to look into the coaches maintenance and painting technology. It should shine as India shining. Third point is pls remove all side middle births provided in EXp./ Superfast trains from AC coaches because after paying this much of money passangers expect good airy space as it were in the railways. Otherwise refund the amount to sufferers.

                                Thanks.

                                  Dear Sir
                                  On 21-11-08, My husband had tried to book e-ticket for himself and myel[censored]nder tatkal scheme due to death in my family.Due to some technical problem in the web page of IRCT.CO.IN.It closed down and there was a message that login session expired and relogin.He logged in again to book the ticket . When he went to take the print out . He came to know that 4 tickets had been booked.When he tried to cancel the 2 tickets, he got the message thatTatkal Ticket can not be cancelled.He spoke to Customer Care person and also wrote email but so far we have not received any favourable response from them.Kindly look into the matter and provide your assisstance in getting our money refunded. I'll be thankful to your website.Details of our ticket is as follows:
                                  Train No:4258
                                  Train Name:Kashi Vishwanath
                                  Travelling Date:22-11-08
                                  PNR NO:[protected]

                                  It happens many a times that, due the heavy traffic on the server, before the e-booking is completed irctc server shows timeout. In this case the user has to login again.

                                  Though Railway authorities says that one should verify booking before making booking again, but those who are rarely using the system, above error may occur.

                                  In this regard my opinion is that :

                                  Railway should reject duplicate booking at the server level itself, in case all the particulars matches. This facility is available in some of the private booking sites.

                                  In genuine cases, the railway should consider refund of such tickets.
