the station code is MKI as followed by IR and IRI.
the departure time is 01.58 hrs and not 04.00 hours
the departure day is sunday,
but seeing the booking status of Regret by IR, the booking has opened on 1.8.2013.

opening date on various stations needs to be verified for each station.

well, there is a slight twist. if the intermediate station has a separate quota for tatkal then even the booking will start a day later. that is not one day before departure from origin but may be a day or two later. until the booking opens, the status will will show as regret/ckwl1.

Which class ?
In case of 3A and if you can travel up to MFP (atleast ) then take Avadh assam from MFP on open SL ticket up to SPJ and from SPJ:
25610 GHY JIVACHH LIN 4- 8-2013 GNWL23/WL6 3A
and for 8- 8-2013 GNWL22/WL18 GNWL4/WL2 both class status is good to book.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
