Hi All,

Recently I had booked a ticket using irctc and at that moment the ticket was confirmed and when I actually went to board the train the chart didnt had my name in it and the seat was allotted to some other guy.Is it possible for me to have a case filed against the indain railway for this?.Please guggest..

Thanks and Regards,

Ajit

definitely you have a remedy. but you should have proper records to show that your ticket was confirmed and you have paid for the same.

Before filing a case you need send a demand notice to the railways, for which railways either have to accept the liability or deny the same. if railways itself is ready to compensate you, why do you want to file a case ?

In case railways refuses to provide appropriate remedy, your case is covered under Consumer protection Act, and you can approach the district consumer's forum claiming damages for deficiency of services by Railways.

Dear Ajit,

Yes, you can file a "Consumer Complaint" before the 'Consumer Court' your Territorial Jurisdiction/Town against the following authorities:

i)  Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation Limited; and

ii) Concerned Railway Authorities

Kindly go through the below attached Judgments and website for your reference.
