Now i complaint about a person in information centre in tiruchirapalli junction, southern railway.
I planned to travel from tiruchirapalli to salem on 03/nov/2018 (Saturday). I asked a person in the information centre on that day and he told me trichy to salem passenger train and i went to ticket counter but it is closed when morning 9.00am o'clock. I met a stranger (At automatic ticket providing machine) he ask me destination and i told to him but he said the train is cancelled. I quickly went to information centre and in the information centre person replies me"the train will go to salem (Harshly)". Finally i told stranger provide me a ticket to salem he used his card (In automatic ticket providing machine) and gave me a ticket to salem and he collect the cash from me. I travelled that train but the train was stopped in karur junction. I waited some time but the train didn't move and i reached information centre in karur junction but no one is there. I went to ticket counter for asking about this problem. Before asking i saw a board and it contains the notification of cancellation of that train (From karur to salem) for a certain dates.in trichy junction, if the person in information centre provides this details means i arrange some others modes. But he didn't. Iam not only a single person to tell about this problem there are so many ladies are waited in that train. After i seen that board i provide the details about cancellation to the ladies in that train. After, they are blaming the railways department and they arrange other modes. Then i went to salem by bus.
I don't think "lack of adequate knowledge person were appointed in information centre" wow southern railways...

Greetings

Train no.12964 date 21/11/2018. Time after 12 am, place tirupati railway station, b1 compartment, seat no.7. Tc misbehaved with lady patient who is requested to change her upper berth no. 5 to a un reserved lower berth no 7. Instead of not considering her request tc sold that lower berth to a general ticket passenger for money. And also offer to that general ticket passenger that he will allot my berth no 4. After i get down.

Sir,
At nagercoil junction, the contractor is charging excess parking fees. He had deployed goons and thugs who doesnt have uniform or proper id cards for the same. Parking fees prescribed by railways is depicted. However they are charging excessive fees. For 1 hour railways had prescribed fees of rs2 for a motor bike. However theese goons are demanding rs 5 or even rs 10 for the same. While questioned they charged against me. A rpf officer was witness for the same. His timely action saved me from these goons. He further requested me to file a complaint to station master. They have even printed rs 5 as parking charges for two hours, even the board depicting the parking fees by railways recommend only rs 2.

Me along with my wife and three year old kid committed the mistake of not securing a platform ticket due to the urgency to drop my old parents who needed help to board the train.
Kr puram railway station is situated on the main road and is a trespassed by many locals for crossing from one side to another. Only me and one other person were picked by a very rude behaving ticket checker with a red tag, not even able to make out if it's a genuine officer, no uniform and was screaming for money.
They were very choosy in picking their victims and letting go people who looked poor.
After digital india i hardly carry cash with me and genuinely had paytm and debit cards. They refuse to let me and my family go and held without a solution putting everyone indiscomfort.
Another person's i phone worth 98000 was confiscated to pay the fine. Upon argument for snatching the phone the tt who was a lady claimed that her picture was taken of the incident and called railway police. He was later taken to police custody for further harassment.
We genuinely understand that we are at fault for not securing a platform ticket. But i think this need to be fixed by the government by introducing a tab on the online ticketing portal giving provision to buy platform ticket as well. We are not people who can't afford a platform ticket.. It's the inconvenience getting them on hand or the system which is not secure letting us do this.
Ticket checker should also have provision to collect digital money.
Request govt to take this as a feedback and take necessary measures.
Date 19/11/2018 kr puram railway station. Time 7:20 pm train no 22608

Not opening ac 1 coach door
I had a confirmed ticket in ac1 tier to travel from bandikui to delhi in train no.12462, mandor express, on[protected]. Ticket
Pnr no.[protected], boggie ha1, berth no.7. The scheduled arrival time at bandikui station is 02.22 hrs and when the train arrived at the station nobody opened the doors of all ac coaches so that i could board the train. When the train is ready to move i ran to a s 1 coach where a rpf staff had opens the door and some how i could board the train after that i pull chain then i board the train along with my wife and our luggage. After the board rpf staff try to open ac coach but no one open the coach door. After that i and rpf staff going to s2 coach
And meet to other sleeper class tc he was make a call to ac coach tc and he request him please open the ac coach door on urgent. After 40 minutes a attendant come & open the door. I was board in ac coach along with my wife with lot of hardship i managed to carry my luggage to the ha 1 ac compartment.in the ac coach tc sleeping in coach so i asked him why you have not opend the door when you are aware that passengers has to board the train. He shouted at me and said it is not my duty to open the doors and i may ask the complaint book about the matter. I talk to him the matter and asked him who is responsible for opening the doors of the compartment at such odd hrs so that the passenger could board the train. But to my surprise, the tc use abuse language & he is ask me that what is your cast. He is saying 'jyada kanun mat chod' bahut dekhe hai tere jaise.

The tc spoil our hole journey so i leave the coach and travel in general coach.
May i get a reply from the indian railways informing me who is responsible for this matter and i also suggest to punish such irresponsible employees so that such matter should not repeat anymore.

Dear sir,

I, along with my friend, travelled from jaipur to delhi by haridwar mail on[protected]. My ticket was in waiting list (Wl4 and wl5). However, i boarded the train in b4 coach and there was a tc i asked him what could i do in this condition to get seat but he simply said to me just cancel your ticket, i said to him what are you saying or how could you say this to me i have to reach delhi, how could i cancel my train at last time, after listening his words i boarded the train in b4 coach, but he said to the coach attendant that don't allow them to enter in this coach.

After that me and my friend entered in sleeper class then the rpf person's behave was very much irresponsible and rude towards me.

While rpf person said that don't stand here, go in any other birth, i agreed that all the birth was fully occupied but he is not allowing us to stand over there. There were some other passengers with general ticket but, instead of allotting the vacant seats to the wait listed passengers, he was trying to allot the seats to ordinary ticket holders who handed him some monetary benefit.

When i noticed this, i questioned him his actions. But, he tried to evade himself by asking me to contact ticket conductor of coach.in fact, i did contact him as well. But, both of them were not even ready to check the seats.

Would senior officials notice this someday and take actions against such corrupt employees? Journey from jaipur to delhi was 7 hrs, so travelling without a seat was a very great inconvenience. But when tc acts like mr pawan sharma, then it hurts badly.

I would plead some top officials to take serious actions against mr pawan sharma and rpf person of that coach, not because i faced lot of inconvenience, but to better the system.

My ticket details are as under

There are two sides of allahabad railway station ie civil lines side and city side. Parking charges of scooty in civil lines side parking is ₹10 whereas it ₹18 in city side parking. There should be uniformity in parking charges. Parking slip doesn't contain name of parking license holder as per agreement clause neither staff were in dress with i. D.

Indian railways — cockroaches and insects in 3 ac compartments and bed bugs in the seats

Hi sir/madam,

I am travelling with my family in 3 ac in train no 12652 (Delhi - madurai).
Nizamuddin madurai express

The time i stepped inside the compartment i could see cockroaches everywhere
The 3ac compartment is extremely in a bad condition and very old and lots of bed bugs in the seats.

The worst thing of all is cockroaches and insects in the 3 ac compartment which are creating lot of problem. We were bitten by cockroaches and are suffering from wounds now. Its hardly haf an hour now and this is our comdition.

Inspite of paying huge amount for the ac travel we are getting facilities and above that we have to deal with insects.

Pathetic is the feeling which we are getting now. Very poor condition.

Is the indian railways thinking that whatever may be the situation indians will travel in railways under any circumstances and with all the dirty maintenance.?

Please look into this for the good of the public.

Regards,
Dhiraj

Most of the time the ticket issuing clerk does not turn up and the ticket issuing room is in locked condition most of the time at nathapettai (Near kancheepuram, tamil nadu) railway station.

Everyday about 10 to 15 people board the train at nathapettai (Near kancheepuram, tamil nadu) railway station in each of the 4 train that halt at nathapettai in the thirumalpur - madras beach route. But mostly all of them travel without ticket as the ticket issuing clerk never turns up.

Even on the day the clerk comes, he enters the station just 5 mts before the arrival of the train.

I feel ashamed to travel without ticket and i have reported this matter to the ttrs at chengalpet and nungambakkam stations. But the problem remains as it is.

All we need is someone to issue the tickets at nathapettai station well before the arrival of trains at that station.

Sir/madam,
Im resident of rajasthan and working in central govt. Office in trivandrum. Today 14 nov 2018 at trivandrum central railway station evening 4:30 pm i had to enter without platform ticket at railway station. It was a extream urgency. I tried to purchase platform ticket. Requested other people who standing in queue but because of language barrier no one understood even i showed them my frnd whose hands were fractured.. I tried to explain ticket checking officer but she was doing her job.. But i didn't pay cause she didn't give any fine slip. I asked for fine slip she told me to wait but i can't wait i got only 15 min from office to drop my frnd at railway station. What further action i should take...
