Yes, I support this complain. It is now almost impossible to book tatkal ticket online as the website remains down busy/down between 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. and after that the situation becomes WL/Seats not Available ! This is an unfair trade practices by the Railway and railways should be punished heavily for such unfair trade practices

CORRUPT SYSTEM STARTS WITH INDIAN GOVERNMENT OFFICES WHO ARE NOT SHAMED OF ANYTHING THEY JUST WANT TO FILL THEIR POCKETS AND MAKE ENTIRE SYSTEM ROTTEN. AS GOVERNMENT GIVES PRIORTY TO CORRUPTION ONLY THROUGH ITS LEGAL WAYS. BECAUSE SALARY IS NOT ENOUGH FOR ALL THESE OFFICIALS. YOU CANNOT BOOK ANY TICKET IN TATKAL BETWEEN 8.00 TO 9.00 A.M. AS THE WEBSITE GETS STUCK UP BY THE AGENTS AND THROUGH OFFICIALS ONLY WHICH ITSELF SHOWS HOW SYSTEM WORKS

INDIAN RAILWAYS A CORRUPT SYSTEM AND THE RAILWAYS MINISTRY AND OFFICIALS ARE CORRUPT ? THE INDIAN SYSTEM ONLY GIVES BIRTH TO CORRUPT POLITICALS CORRUPT SYSTEM AND CORRUPT OFFICIALS. IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF TATKAL TICKET DONT WAIT TO BOOK AT IRCTC.CO.IN EVERYBODY OVER THERE ARE THIEVES AND ALL ARE IN HANDS TOGETHER TO LOOT THE COMMON PUBLIC. SO IF OFFICIALS OF INDIAN RAILWAYS ARE READING THIS SHAME ON YOU PEOPLE YOU ARE REALLY BASTARDS.

Dear Sir,

I have booked a flat in Sikka karmic greens, sector-78, Noida (also known as M/s GS promotors limited) through a MOU with our PSU.

Since the begining this builder has been demanding extra money in the name of interest, increased area etc.

AS per the MOU, I am suppose to pay next installment at the slab casting of 8th floor but the current status of construction is at 6th floor only.

On tried to contact and convince the builder employees (as builder is not available).. they are in no mood to hear my case...

I donot know what should I do in such a situation when I have already paid 60% for the payment..

Please help me...
I have got demand letter dated 29-May-2012 and photos of the site taken on 05-June with me...

Now, the real question is that because of above problem one can not book the tatkal or normal ticket on opening day. So, ultimately one had to depend on agents, who charge upto Rs200.00 for every tatkal ticket, thereby wasting my hard earned money in brokerages. This shows a nexus between agents and Railway peopl

When you want to book “TATKAL” railway ticket through “irctc.CO.IN” web site, you will find that more than 300 seats are available before 8:00am and when you login after 8:00 am, it shows “REGRET/WL001”. Not only that, you cannot book even normal ticket as the site does not work properly between 8:00 am to 9:00am and you will face lot of difficulties. This is the fact and you can try it.
Now, the real question is that because of above problem one cannot book the “TATKAL or NORMAL” railway ticket on opening day. So, finally one has to depend on “AGENTS”, who charge Rs. 200/Person for “TATKAL” ticket, thereby wasting our earned money in brokerage.
Above reflect connection between “AGENTS” and “INDIAN RAILWAY”.

I DO AGREE WITH YOU. I THINK THESE AGENTS ARE BLOCKING THE TRAFFIC MAKING IMPOSSIBLE FOR OTHERS. THESE BASTARDS NEED TO BE STOPPED ATLEAST FOR TATKAL AS THEY ARE FOR EMERGENCY PURPOSES.

When corruption seems to be the breath of this country, what can we expect from Railways.... a Govt run organisation?Our complaints, serve as a feedback for the babus, and senior rail officials of the strength of their nexus. Ek baar shayad hume bhagwan ka darshan asliyat mein ho sakta hai....lekin without agent, Tatkal booking nahi ho sakta!!!

If you don't mind, Can you please email me the agent contact number. I badly need a source to my tatkal tickets. I was never able to book tickets using irctc website between 8:00AM and 9:00AM

Thanks in Advance.

I support this complaint. I have never been able to book a tatkal ticket for weekend. I found a agent who could book tatkal tickets at will. Even if I call him at 8:30AM, he somehow manages it.
Somebody should look into this matter.
