To Whomsoever it may concern,
I traveled in the Pinakini express Train No. 2711 from Vijayawada junction to Chennai on 3rd june 2010 (Thursday). I have reserved a ticket in the D1 compartment of the train. Many people having tickets for the general (unreserved) compartment climbed into D1 and other reserved compartments. There was no possibility to get up from the seat even to go to toilet. It took me 5 minutes to go from the middle of the compartment to the toilet as the compartment was crowded and i couldn\'t get back to my seat again. I complained this matter to the T.C and asked him to take action. As expected i got a very rude answer which was the following - \"I cant help it. What do you want me to do now? I don\'t have a battalion of police with me to control this crowd. So i am helpless. What will the people do if they don\'t get tickets? You go and complain to the higher authorities and ask them to run more number of trains\". Later after i got down in the chennai central station i went to the station master\'s office and i was told to go to another office and from there to another. Like this i visited 3 offices and in the 4th one i could tell my complain. The person in this office told me that it should be taken lightly and i should settle the matter with the T.C of the train. I also told him that i did complain to the T.C. and he gave me a harsh reply. Then this person told me that he is helpless and can\'t do anything. The T.C of the train took bribes form those who don\'t have reservation tickets and i obviously can\'t prove it. I beg the railway authorities to take make the Ticket checking stricter
