What exactly is “Tatkaal” about this service?
At PSK Raidurg, Hyderabad, the earliest Tatkaal appointment is 30 September 2026—after waiting 26 full days from today. The earliest Normal appointment is 12 October 2026, just 12 days later.
This looks less like expedited service and more like a premium charge for limited appointment availability.
@MEAIndia@CPVIndia@passportsevamea@rpohyderabad@TCS — please review the appointment-quota allocation and urgently rectify this for applicants.
Yet applicants are being asked to pay ₹6,000 for Tatkaal.
A premium service that offers only a 12-day advantage, while consuming 26 days just to reach the appointment, defeats the very purpose of “urgent” passport service.
