Sir the time which I'm talking abt there were only 36 berths in Tatkal but now at least 276/281(almost equal to GEN quota) belongs to Tatkal....Rlys move is nice because they're discouraging Free Pass,PTO,Army,Defence,Cancer Patient,Scouts Guides etc & allows only genuine travellers but too much of charge is levied from poor man.

Safety surcharge also levied in Bus fares and freight charges by trucks since the Buses and Lorries are utilize the existing and the proposed additional ROB/RUB without any delay in their operation.
