Indian Railways
Unauthorisd boarding

I happened to tavel by train no. 2727 godavari express on 20.07.2010 in sleeper class S-11 coach, alongwith my family members. Whn the train arrived at station, a group of passengers who does not have reservation started boarding into the coach without allowing the gnuine passengers to board. With great dificulty ultimately we could board the train after its taking move only. Afterwards when we approached the seats alloted for us we found the seats were full with occupancy by unauthorised passengers who are mostly season ticket holders. when asked to vacate our seats they started quarrelling with us saying that we should adjust with whatever the place left by them. we were only two and they were around twenty and thier bhaviour was very much threatening. We had to keep quiettill they vacted the seats in between samalkot and rajahmundry. This is not an isolatd incident and almost everytime when we travel by this train or by visakha express just before that, we are facing this awesome experience. Can not the railways stop this menace of travvelling of season ticket holders by reserved coaches by imposing penalties as per the extent rules?
