ReplyDeleteIRCTC Website is admirable and one of the best in world. It is good that it is being further upgraded and facility of making ticket booking through Cellular Phones is proposed.However, the biggest problem is provision of advance booking too much in advance. It cannot be denied that the provision of Ticket Booking, 4 months in advance is not being misused. Generally the very first day all Quotas are already full due to such fake advance bookings made by touts and agents. In practice a genuine traveler is generally able to foresee his travel program only about ONE month in advance. Therefore,provision of booking 4 months in advance promotes speculative booking. Therefore, it shall be helpful if cancellation charge is made at least 40% of Fare. This will deter people from making speculative booking.
