Within 10 minutes of opening for Tatkal booking dated 14.02.2020, the following was shown on the screen today. What is the reason for such quick book via tatkal, should not an investigation be done in this matter.

A corrupt govt employee must be taken as anti-national since the govt of the day intended to provide the service but the govt servant obstructed it for personal interest; hence he has brought down the efforts of the govt as well as brought a bad name to the good work of other sincere govt employees. more

Personally I plan and book well in advance for my private journeys or drive if the distance is less than 500 km (which nowadays have become too costly due to toll taxes); Since I found it difficult to book tatkal and went to agents whenever an emergency. Surprisingly they not only got me confirmed tickets always but also a lower berth or a side lower berth as I requested. In fact, one agent in Bhopal (to whom I was directed as being a guaranteed tatkal provider) where I had gone on temporary duty for a meeting told me for my return waiting list ticket "sir, go back to your guest room and relax and you will receive the message of a confirmed lower berth" in a short while. And I did. Of course, he charged rs 500 service charge for an AC 2 tier. The agents (some of them) have some setting which enables them to get confirmed tickets. My experience with agents have been 100%, though costly. Of course, not all agents have this ability and one has to seek them out. There definitely is a nexus that needs investigation and fixing. more

This is atributed to system failure. Recently, a big syndicate was busted, God knows how many such syndicates are active. For example, GST system has been designed in a big way sucessfully. The IRCTC has to provide full proof system, til such time online TATKAL ticket to remain a far cry. more
