Bansal uncle plz….Ati-Tatkal for the students

Recently I went to the railway station for purchasing a ticket to my home town. After standing two hours in queue, I did not get confirm seat in giant like railway compartments because all the seats had been already booked. So finally, I got myself satisfied with a waiting ticket and hoped to get that confirm after few days. 

While purchasing the ticket I felt that there should be three categories for railway reservation. First one should be general (before 4 months of your journey), second one ‘Tatkal’ (before a day) and the third one should be ‘Ati-Tatkal’ (before 4 hours). I expected the new system with the railway minister in 2013 railway budget but unfortunately no one is there to listen my grievances. 

However railway system has allowed to purchase the ticket before four months of your journey but neither me nor my family members have ever purchased the railway ticket before 3-4 months even we never get a reserve seat in tatkal as well. So I think, best way to travel in railway is 'waiting ticket'.  After boarding at the train with waiting ticket, TTE (Travel ticket examiner) will automatically allow you a confirm seat after acepting 50 or 100 bucks. I’m not talking about AC compartment of Indian Railway because I prefer to buy air ticket because that is comparatively low-priced and easy to get.

And if you don’t have too much amount to spend, just go for general compartment, you will reach at your destination any how, might be in torn clothes or with half of hair on your head. Our railway system is too good no? But the only thing I'm missing is ‘Ati-Tatkal’. I personally request the railway minister Pawan Bansal to accept my grievances and allow ‘Ati-Tatkal’ system for me so that I can travel freely anywhere and anytime. And if there is problem for starting the demanded system for everyone, he can allow this only for the students because most of time, interviewers call the students at evening hours and says, “ You have interview schedule tomorrow at 10 am in XYZ city”. Now, instead of concentrating on his exam, the poor guy start to screaming for his travel.
