Upper seat booking

Yes. the lower seat should be reserved for senior citizens or all above age of 50 if the ticked is booked at least 2 days before of leaving the train. There may be a case that senior citzien has bookd the ticket at last moment where there the lower seat was not available. HOWEVER, BEST SYSTEM IS RAILWAY SHOULD INFORM PRIOR TO BOOKING THE SEAT STATUS SO THAT IN CASE OF UPPER SEAT ONE CAN LEAVE THE BOOKING. more

Exactly that is what the rail ticket booking customers have been asking for. We are in the dark till we pay for the ticket. The Berth status of Ticket should appear before the payment is made , so that the passenger can go for another train or another date. Why are the Railways keeping the Brth / Seat status of ticket close to the chest till money is paid. more  
I fully endorse the proposal of Mr. Srivatsa more  
The software system should be adjusted in such a way to allot lower berths to Sr. Citizens, Disabled persons and Pregnant women by alloting Middle and Upper berths to others according to age more  
There was an option is there where you can choose that if lower seat is not allotted then the system will not book the ticket. more  
To discourage young people from booking lower berths, IR should charge 10% extra fare for lower berths as the rent for ground floor house is much more than upper floors. more
