Seeking Train Ticket And Those Fiddling With Net Connection On A Strong Wicket

Seeking Train Ticket And Those Fiddling With Net Connection On A Strong Wicket

Having returned from Lord Hanuman Temple In Connaught Place In New Delhi on a Tuesday it was time to book a train ticket to Nashik in Maharashtra State In West India where there is palpable ease as people have less smartphone phobia. As I settled down much before 9.30 AM to align with expectations from Indian Railways I was eager as well as hopeful that ticket would come through despite Biden Administration's record having been rough and true. No sooner the clock struck 10, the attempt to access Indian Railway Website proved to be increasingly difficult as this has never happened in the past and the forces which were trying to derail my efforts were none other than those in Khakhi (Cops) much amused by rally in bourses. They could not well understand that this rally is hyperbole and this could well run out of steam as all indicators suggest the economy is on a downward spiral and this discourse carried in carrel. 

Telling Wi Fi Operator To Delete Password Of New Data Card As Men In Khakhi Take Pleasure By Fiddling With Net Connection Alike To An Act Of  Having Yoghurt

I had repeatedly told the wi fi operator to erase the password when I was collecting fresh and new data card as men in khakhi would make my life miserable and fiddle with my net connection as they presume this act to be no short of invention. By 10.33 the railway booking site did not open and when it finally opened its doors to the outside world it showed the waiting list to be 12 as some had booked ticket draped in towel. That was Tuesday and all effort gone wasted. Coming to Wednesday I took seat much before 9 AM and by the time I got access to the railway site the message that emanated from railway quarters was booking had not started for this select class and this continued well beyond 10.30 when the reality is booking starts at 10 AM sharp and railway quarters short of creativity. When I was able to book ticket after my efforts getting stonewalled on a continued scale the ticket that I secured showed waiting list status of 13 and there was no point visiting the railway canteen. The next day Thursday was the day when I expected to gain alerts on my train status once railway chart is prepared at 12.55 PM and here I could not locate the Railway GM. When the chart came in public domain I was put on waitlist and again my efforts were ransacked alike some offices getting the same even if they don't play prank. 

Visiting Railway Reservation Centre To Try My Luck

Coming To Friday I visited railway reservation centre in Sarojini Nagar well before 7.45 AM. I got hold of Tatkal Form (Priority Ticket Form) and duly filled the same much hopeful that this time I would gain ticket as railway reservation centre doesn't furnish excuses that are lame. Some women approached me to fill their form and as I obliged them I did not realise this was a ploy where those marking serial numbers of those seeking AC ticket was being done at the same time when I was filling the women form and again the task of gaining ticket looked to be giant. I was assigned number 16 and with two counters functioning and it effectively meant that my number was 8. By 10.03 AM when my turn came it showed waiting list to be One and here I was in no dire need of any intervention as wait list of One done from railway reservation counter the ticket gets confirmed despite the travails of EVMs (Electronic Voting Machines) and those carrying the same having enough dose of rum. Saturday was the day when from 9 AM onwards I was waiting and waiting and this looked to be endless and at 12.55 the railway site showed the chart had not been prepared. At 1.20 the railway site showed the chart is in progress leaving some with stress. At 1.27 when the final chart came I was left again with waiting list of One and still the ticket not getting confirmed despite doing from window booking and this game of notoriety being waged by those who were plump. I made a dash to reservation centre to get the refund minus cancellation charges. Four Days were wasted in seeking a train ticket and the forces at play were riding no horses. This unforeseen development has been trending for four days and forces and their act of denouement have enough traces. 

As I take a train to Bhopal (Bhopal Is In Madhya Pradesh State In Middle India )and this enlisting breather for one day the journey to Manmad and later to Nashik (Manmad And Nashik Are In Maharashtra State In West India) should be less pretentious and this need not be classic. Ordinary men have ordinary hopes and train connectivity should be minus pain and jokes.
