Indian Railways Complaints & Reviews

Sir, we are traveling in ap express from rjy to new delhi train number 22415 on[protected], in 3 tier ac coach b6... We found that the air conditioner was not working and passengers of other ac coaches were also complaining about the same. We waited for some time hoping that once the train starts, the ac will start working. But nothing changed even after an hour. When we told the coach attendant about this, he didn’t seem to care. Please do the needful

Please check what's happening.

I have used paytm upi to pay for the season ticket after the money got debited still it was loading and not applied in the uts app.

Note i have used the recharge wallet option couple of times and it worked perfectly.

Also tried to call the helpline that is out of service and emailed them, as i thought no response from them.

I travelled on 24 sep by train no 16860 boarded at karur to reach chennai egmore.

I was woken up at tiruchi station to produce photo id at late night.
No checking between karur and tiruchi.

Considering the timings and security of passengers I suggest sufficient staff bw deployed to avoid hardship to senior citizens.

Hopefully my suggestion would receive attention of authorities.

I had a waiting list 2ac ticket travelling from hyderabad (Begumpet station) to sholapur (Maharashtra). My ticket did not confirm and when we reached the station of boarding (Begumptet) i was told that if the ticket is not confirmed we had to travel in general compartment. As i was travelling with my family and kids we decided not to board the train and cancel the ticket. The departure time from my boarding station was 8:45 pm and i went to the ticket counter for cancellation at 8:00 pm. The railway employee on the counter adamantly declined to cancel the ticket which as per her version needs to be cancelled only from the originating station (Nampally station) of the train if the ticket needs to cancelled in between 4 hours and half an hour of starting time of the train. As a layman i really do not know the rules of cancellation but after some research i found out that the ticket can be cancelled at any station before half hour of starting time of the train from the originating station without any deduction (Other than a nominal amount) if the ticket is not confirmed.

My kind request to the indian railways is that kindly do not dupe people for their money by giving them wrong information which they are not aware of at a point in time. It is very basic that if the ticket is not confirmed the amount needs to be refunded but due to the adamant and disgusting behavior of the railway employee which i could not stand in front of all the public waiting in the cue i had to just shut my mouth and walk away from there without arguing further.

I am not asking for any refund even now but kindly try and bring a change to your services and the behavior of the employees working for indian railways which jeopardizes the righteousness of the whole system.

I visited the railway station of kota junction at 9:37 to handover the food to my relatives who were traveling in 12941. I parked my vehicle in parking lot and he gave me token on which it was written ₹5 for 6 hrs. I returned to parking lot after handing over the food and when i was paying 5₹ as per token he said ₹10 is charged not ₹5. On arguing him for 5₹ he said "do what ever you want." i abused me and tried to push me but however i was able to escape. My vehicle no is rj20-fs 2192. I want you to take strict action against this. I'm attaching my platform ticket as parking token was taken backed by him.

During the unfortunate Kerala Floods in August, we were one of the many tourists stuck up in Ernakulam. However, we were able to book 22114/KCVL LTT SF EXP, the date of journey being 16th August 2018. We had booked 3 tickets in 3A Class costing Rs.4295 the payment of which was made online. The PNR No. of the above journey is [protected]. The scheduled departure of the train was 5.15 hrs from Ernakulam Town (ERN) Station. The Train departed at around 10.40 am which is around 5 and half hours late. Till the train departed, we were assured by the Ticket Checkers that the train will definitely start and we will reach LTT. Also, there were continuous announcements on the ERN Station that this train will commence its journey soon.So till the train began, we did not cancel the ticket. Finally, when the train started its journey at 10.40 am, we were hoping to reach home. But as soon as the train reached Aluva at 1.30 pm, there was an announcement which said that the train will not go further due to the flooding on tracks and Aluva Bridge. Even the TCs were not aware that the train is going to get cancelled and go back to Kochuvelli from where it had come. We were confused and lost and did not understand what should we do. At this time the TCs asked us to file TDR to get full refund for the cancelled journey. We immediately filed the TDR.
But on 7/9/2018 I received a mail stating that the TDR filed against PNR Number [protected] with reason Train Diverted And Train Not Touching Destination Station. has been repudiated by the Chief Commercial Manager/Refunds Chennai Zone due to reason TRAIN NOT CANCELLED/DIVERTED AT BOARDING AND/OR RESERVED UPTO STATION, So case is Repudiated as per the Indian Railways Refund Rules https://www.services.irctc.co.in/betaDoc/Amendments_RefundRules_2406.pdf.
What i don't understand is how can the CCM Chennai Zone repudiate the the TDR even after knowing the situation in Kerala during that time. As per rule 16 of the above rules, we are eligible to get refund, but the CCM Chennai Zone has repudiated the request without understanding the whole scenario. There seems to be no clear communication between officials and railway administration due to which passengers like us have to keep submitting our complaints to various authorities even after 1 and a half month has passed after our cancelled journey. I would be obliged if my problem gets solved.

Please find enclosed my letter dated 20.11.2017 through ECRLY/R/ 2017/80184 and your reply vide letter No.WPE/22/RTI/HQ.343/17, dated 20.11.2017 with regard to action taken against Namala Sanyasi Rao (Provident Fund No. NPSIGO70425) recruited as Assistant Loco Pilot with false medical certificate of physical fitness and later on became junior clerk and presently working in East Coast Railway, CAO (Con), Waltair Division, Visakhapatnam.

Namala Sanyasi Rao having tendency of criminal conspiracy with much greed indulged in forgery and encroachment of land for constructing multi storey building situated at Bhavani Gardens, Old ITI Junction, Visakhapatnam resulting 2 FIRs filed by the Vth Town Police Station of Visakhapatnam vide Nos.493/2015, dated 19.11.2015 & 104/2016, dated 15.04.2016 under Sections 417, 420, 468, 471 r/w. 34 IPC.

District & Sessions Judge, Visakhapatnam vide CRL.M.P. 2510/2015, dated 14.12.2015 & CRL.M.P. 1263/2016, dated 27.05.2016 (Copies enclosed).

No.196/2017, dated 03.04.2017(Copies enclosed for information).

I have received an information from the Railway Board, New Delhi stating that, “GM (Vigilance)/ECoR vide his letter No. ECoR/VI/ Pers/Comp./253/16/397 dtd.[protected] intimated that the allegations made against Sri Namala Sanyasi Rao

has been investigated by vigilance department of South Central Railway on the reference made by Central Vigilance Commission. The case has been inquired by Vigilance Department/ECoR/BBS against Namala Sanyasi Rao, Junior clerk and based on the report, Major Penalty Charge Sheet (SF-5) has been issued by DY. CEE/Con/VSKP vide letter No. E/Con/NSR/D and A/2017/244 dated 01.11.2017”

Because of too much greediness for money Namala Sanyasi Rao had dared to join as Asst. Loco Pilot as the job is fetching more money than other similar posts despite his disability of having a disease of Epilepsy by birth. He worked as Asst. Loco Pilot for 8 years is nothing but played deadly game with lakhs of commuters travelled by trains.

The truth of his dangerous employment had come to knowledge of the family members when police questioned his occupation for filing FIR for involving in the above mentioned forgery and criminal conspiracy cases.

The above played deadly game is unwarranted and condemnable by each and every body as the commuters travelled by trains operated by the greedy Epilepsy disease person for 8 years is horrible. In this connection, it should be made known to everybody that, such Epilepsy disease greedy persons should not occupy very sensitive jobs involving security of public life.

The related information sought under RTI Act, 2005 dated 20.11.2017 has not been supplied stating that the issue is not related to large public interest. This is the issue is connected with lakhs of commuters travelled by trains for 8 years.

In this connection, you are humbly requested to look into the matter and take necessary action against Namala Sanyasi Rao immediately.

Thanking You, Sir,
Yours faithfully,

Indian railways suck big time. Sitting in trivandrum malabar train is like meditating in himalayas it’s never gonna reach the destination. How much will you loot us? I just hope all the trains buses old buildings roads with potholes get washed away in the next flood along with all the politicians and people get finally saved from this once amazing now dreadful country.
