Indian Railways - online booking
Potential fraud in online booking facility

Today, all Tatkal tickets across all classes on Hyderabad-Bangalore route for 3-Jan vanished by 8:15 itself. One may be tempted to dismiss this as a case of sour grapes, but what is to be noted is that none of the websites (irctc, yatra, cleartrip) were able to proceed beyond accepting the source & destination stations for me - and I have a 512 kbps broadband.

At 8:15 they started showing availability and by that time already waitlist of 100 started showing. How is that possible?

I strongly suspect illegal collusion between people in charge of the online booking facility and some travel agent (s) whereby the facility will be withheld for a few minutes for the common man while agent (s) with specific IPs can make merry. Request immediate investigation into this issue.
