Dear All
The Ajanta Express from SC to NSL for the date 06/02/2013 has a waitlist of 59 (current). Can I book the tickets for my senior citizen parents and get it confirmed by the date of travel. Any ideas please share. Thanks, RamM

Sir, the initial query'"Can I book the tickets for my senior citizen parents" and his addendum later on has not been understood properly.
1 His mother is eligible for LB quota and father not.
2 He is unaware of SS quota. He checked Gen WL at 59-WL and jumped in this blog post for advice.
3. It was better that he be advised
...
more...
accordingly to book two separate berths to avail SS quota for his mother and GEN for his father.
4 There was absolutely no need to suggest filing of wrong age and then plead to the TTE. It is unethical and is least expected from reputed members of this site.
5 Regarding claim of advice that I have suggested such and such and the blogger is responsible for consequences is sheer nonsense. Someone may advise to board the train without any valid ticket to face the consequences. At least IRI platform must not be allowed for such things.

What is nonsense to you may be of total commonsense to others. When it has been clearly mentioned that guest may do so only if he wishes to, why are you and others eager to make an issue out of this..? Just for publicity or to defame others deliberately?

I did not expect that learned members of this forum advise innocent public to do unlawfull activities. Then some one may say that the availability is saying REGRET and he will be advised to board the train without ticket and plead to the TTE that I had urgency. The avl was regret and I boarded the train w/t ticket. Wah ji wah. Maza aa gaya. Yahan kaisi advice milti hai.

    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...
