Indian railways nowadays become very chaotic and unbearable even for reserved seat customers
You may heard news of deaths due to rush during diwali and chhath, but day to day travel is also become very difficult in these trains
Let's understand the reason behind it
In past railway passenger rake had 4 general coaches around 12-13 sleeper coaches and 4-5 AC coaches but now most of the long distance trains are running with only 4 sleeper class coaches 2 general coaches and 13 AC coaches
These trains cover around 1500-2500 kilometer distance in a run and stop on almost every city railway station, you can imagine how only two general coaches going to fulfil requirement of a 2000 km travel, due to heavy rush general class travellers are forced to board sleeper class which is already out of capacity but TTE allows them to stay in sleeper class by charging hefty fine ( they don't tell them to leave reserved coach but say ticket banwalo) and those who paid for ticket have to do struggle for moving inside the train even toilet access gets restricted people sleeping on train floor sitting in toilets and what not.....
Subject issue has been clarified here.
This thread is not about population no one is asking to increase SL and GN coaches from 13 to 26 and 4-6 to 12 respectively but they should not be reduced you can't kill 70% population to fit in 70% less capacity sleeper coaches, SL and GS is never increased since last 20 years++ atleast,,, but in 2023 GS and SL capacity is drastically reduced to harass people and to ease the path of privatisation
Genral kyo.. free without ticketwale coach bhi hone chahiye . 10 12 alag se.. sab chahiye sirf..
Ek do genral bogi fligt me bhi hona chahiye.. bina ticket wala..
AC ki jagah train ke pichhe ek do malgadi ki dabbe bhi lagna chahiye..
Train har Ghar door to door service hona chahiye.. tt aaye bole chaliye mahraj samay ho Gaya hai tran ka.
My booked seat was captured by exam students. Tried TDR immediately but irctc did not allow. And station had no staff or window for complain from inside area. Had to go outside ticket window queue just to hear that I need to complain by email to their regional office thing. 4 years no refund after email.
And of course there is no refund for tatkal (like shopping order cancel ) if booked some other station clearly by mistake in hurry.
And then normal TDR filing, if late or missed or changed plan, is denied 70% times. Since 2014? Also somethinghas happened to tatkal booking since 2 years. Its jumping from 50 available to waiting in 20 seconds. Always need agent now for 10am tatkal booking even though am was very fast at 10am bookings till 2021
Sab k sab chor hai including irctc 🤣
Some masterstrokes by Railway in recent years -
Reduced general coaches to 1-2.
Reduce sleeper to 2-5.
Increase AC to 12-18
Increase number of Tatkal Tickets to earn more profit.
Selling 10 times general tickets than capacity and allowing general ticket holders to make life hell for reserved sleeper ticket holders by collecting hefty fines.
Dynamic pricing of Rajdhani Shatabdi.
Scrapped the 10% discount on current available tickets fare.

You do understand pvt companies are only for profit.
And as soon as railway is privatized, they will hike the prices.
Railways is in loss since years, it usually recovers only 57% of average fare.
What about the metro, which is also run by a private company, still ticket prices are average and affordable
But i see the other way....it is a very sad reality that we Indians donot follow rules....why these general class ticket holders board reserved coaches?....isn't it against the rules?....If there are any emergencies,then it is okay...but other morons just board whatever coaches they see and sit wherever they can see a empty seat....they are an absolute thrash to deal with....these people are mostly drunkards and sleep wherever they find space.....its a big pain in the arse for the TTE too to deal with such idiots....Our country would be more nice if all us follow all the rules and be responsible....
Not only here, be in road manners, or keeping our place tidy....almost 95 percent of us dont give a damn sheet and jeep ruining our country..... Its sad but real....

This 57% of fee from each passenger is a stupid joke.
They don't even refund complete amount for wait listed tickets. Robbing a bit each from the innumerous waitlisted people.
And the general tickets they issue also is limitless even for just two compartments, I wonder how many people they think they can accommodate in the two dabbas.
And for robbing double charges for each berth in the name of RAC, the less said the better.
