Has anyone noticed how difficult it has become to book tatkal tickets these days? There is an active TQ Ticket agent mafia that is controlling the sales using automated software. For the past 3 days, I've been trying to book TQ tickets for Hyderabad but failing every time. Then I contacted an agent, and he assured me of a 99% probability of getting a confirmed ticket. He asked for ₹500 extra on top of the final ticket price, but when everything is the same for both, how is he so sure about getting a confirmed ticket? I further investigated and got to know about automated software that these agents are using to book TQ tickets. I even came across multiple YouTube/WhatsApp/Telegram channels that are openly selling this software. As a normal human, one can't compete with fully automated software that books a confirmed TQ ticket in just 30 seconds, even for the busiest routes at the busiest times, like Diwali (proofs attached). Firstly, passengers are paying TQ charges on top of ticket costs, and then they are paying an additional amount to these agents to get a TQ ticket, and @IRCTCofficial @RailMinIndia are doing nothing about it. Babus don't care as they are getting confirmed tickets in the HO quota, and these problems don't exist for them. Dear @AshwiniVaishnaw As both I&B and Rail Minister, I'm sure that you or your team must be aware of it. Why is no action initiated against such malpractice? Why are such agents not put behind bars yet, or shall we assume that even people inside the organisation are involved in all this? Attaching proofs of how such software works #IndianRailways

Honestly how long will you guys take to resolve this issue? You guys have closed this case and expect me to lodge a complaint again?

This has not been resolved yet @Airtel_Presence @airtelindia Should I consider changing my network? How long does it take to resolve this case? I've been facing low internet coverage and no 5G.

@PaytmTravel @Paytmcare Bus hasn't completed the journey. 2hours behind schedule. It's Monday and we have to get to work..When asked, driver says platforms claim timings on their own and they can't help it.

Drivers stop whenever and wherever they wish. Get people to board at random stops and make money out of them..

Is this how you guys maintain the time? This is absolutely not professional. Drivers stop wherever they want, for however long they want. If I pick ksrtc buses, they reach on time as they have mentioned, unlike you guys

Infighting before forming Govt! Shows how power hungry they're! Trust me, next 5 years will be super difficult if they actually keep up their promises of freebies, going to be another Srilanka! #KarnatakaCM #KarnatakaDrama
