The Sampark kranti express which runs from Delhi to patna has 9 seats in a coach, but the seat number issued in the ticket is for 8 seats in a coach of 3 - Tier.
If an elderly person reserves a ticket for lower berth, say seat number 9, he will actually get the Side Upper berth according the seating arrangement there.
Same would be happening with other trains with similar arrangements.
Its actually a fraud done by Ministry of railways giving us printed tickets with wrong berth information.
