About travelling in sleeper with waitlisted PRS tickets; Looks like IR is trying its best to be strict with the new rule!
.
As reported by a friend of mine who traveled this Wednesday in SL till CNB.
.
"TTEs

were standing at the gate of EVERY sleeper coach and they were only allowing people with CONFIRMED tickets to get in, be it e-ticket or PRS, W/L ticket holders were denied to board and the ones that were in were de-trained at NDLS itself."

Re# 828511-15              
there should be an option where passengers should compulsorily give their bank account no.in reservation slips, and when ticket remains in w/l, the money will be refunded in that account. as identity card is mandatory, so i am almost sure that every identity card holder has atleast a bank account....

Because as soon as an e-ticket gets stuck in wl, it is cancelled and refund procedure starts, while for a prs ticket you have to go back to the window to get refund. So railways have no problem if you travel with wl prs ticket in a general coach because it is already paid for, in fact more than what is required.

I agree Sir. Rules have become too tight for prs holders.

Brilliant idea BG sir but will IR really take the pains to transfer money received in cash electronically to bank accounts? In e-tickets they make IRCTC deal with it which in turn makes it mostly a one-on-one transaction b/w the bank and the user. For refunds, again its a similar procedure and the ease lies in the fact that its all dealt with electronic money.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
