Indian Railways
Heavy rush in Reservation coaches

Sir,

I happened to travel in Venad Express from Aluva to Thiruvananthapuram central on 10-04. I reserved six tickets for my family. I got six seat numbers also. But, when the train reached Aluva, I was surprised to see that I could not even enter into the reservation compartment. That much heavy rush was there inside the compartment. Somehow, I managed to get inside the compartment. Even then I was able to get only 4 seats for me. There was heavy rush and people were not ready to give the six reserved seats for me. A TTE came and examined the tickets of only reserved passengers. He just told commonly that those who have not reservation tickets should go to the other compartment. It was really discouraging that most of the passengers inside that compartment were not having reservation tickets. So, what I am requesting is that, either you should take immediate action to prevent this type of inconveniences for the reserved passengers in future, or you please stop reservations in such trains.

Expecting favorable action and a reply,

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,
