New Delhi: Indian railway passengers won’t be able to avail ‘waiting’ facility under Tatkal quota ticket from 1st August on-wards, as per sources within the railway...
sir, As budget session is ahead i have some suggestions regarding tatkal booking. everybody knows that common people are not that fortunate to avail tatkal tickets as 100% prs counters are occupied by touts and agents much before the booking started. a common man cannot sleep overnight on station to get a number to book tatkal ticket by 10.00am. where as touts can do it with grouping themselves under the blessings of rpf and booking clerks. so obviously a passenger depands upon either upon tout or travel agency. to get a ticket.

suggest 1. make all tatkal bookings online only like premium train booking and no prs ticket issued so that passengers can attend the computer just before 10 am and no need to wait long wasting time and money. but care must be taken irctc server must be improved to world class. 2. second suggestion is to change once again the tatkal bookings to point to point sale with boarding anywhere. so that short traveled passengers can not pick the quota in between and long distance passengers can be benefited.
Please do it early so that the Board can think over your new ideas. I have already sent 17 new train proposals out of which 3 are from Mangalore ( - HTE, DBRT & GKP ) along with other suggestions.
