India is probably the only country where a govt babu, whose department was directly responsible for mixing of water and sewage that resulted in the death of 30 innocent citizens, not only will not be punished but actually promoted, but the CEO of a private company, who doesn't have direct control over a factory where 2 workers tragically died, will be arrested immediately and sent to trial
Welcome to India, where:
A BA graduate delivers Zomato
An MBA sells credit cards
A BTech writes UPSC mains
And a PhD is waiting for caste-based vacancy

When I was elected General Secretary of the Association, I began writing to the Prime Minister and Finance Minister against feudal bureaucracy, the organised cartel of IRS officers exercising control and facilitating corruption, colonial administrative practices and VIP culture. I demanded fundamental bureaucratic reforms, insisting that the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission must be accompanied by comprehensive administrative reforms.
I ended one of my letters with a thought that assumes particular significance in the present instance.
This incident is nothing but a reflection of India’s colonial and feudal bureaucracy, where a person enters the service and suddenly finds himself vested with overwhelming power, without accountability, expertise or experience. He has no original work to perform, no specialised knowledge to demonstrate and no responsibility to shoulder. His entire authority consists of shouting at subordinates, issuing orders and exercising power over others. Everyone is expected to bow before him, and everything is placed at his feet.
I wrote these words:
“My whole life has been spent exploring the mysteries of human behaviour. Yet one mystery remains unresolved: What do people gain from humiliating their subordinates?”

This is another level of corruption these days. You can't even think of book tatkal tickets these days. Even after payment done, ticket is not going to book. Aam adami are helpless @AshwiniVaishnaw@ECRlyHJP@RailMinIndia@RailwaySeva
🚨 @amofficialCRIS has successfully destroyed the RailOne app.
Used to book Tatkal tickets flawlessly earlier vs Now? Fails every single time and this is happening since weeks, not one successful TQ booking.
The irony? IRCTC Rail Connect is now MORE reliable now than the "upgraded" solution. 💀
Sir @AshwiniVaishnaw@RailMinIndia what happened to all those big claims about RailOne?
Didn't even survive a year. 📉
@IRCTCofficial@RailwaySeva@Indianrailgadi
I booked the Tatkal tickets today, 14 October 2026, through the IRCTC app for two passengers travelling from LTT (Lokmanya Tilak Terminus) to Mau Junction on 15 October 2026.
When I was booking the ticket, the app was showing that 25 seats available for 3rd AC. But completed the payment by me, the ticket status changed to Waiting List 51 and 52.
Now, I want to cancel the tickets. How much refund will I receive? The total amount charged was ₹4,444.50.
1. By what time will the reservation chart be prepared?
2. Will the refund be processed automatically if the tickets are not confirmed?
3. Will I still receive an automatic refund if the tickets remain waitlisted even after the chart has been prepared?
@IRCTCofficial what is wrong with your app now? Why am I being shown only tatkal option for booking date of 16th Nov? @RailwaySeva@RailMinIndia please help. It's been highlighted before, but no response.
@RailMinIndia@PMOIndia@IRCTCofficial failed to book a Tatkal ticket for 2nd day in a row..the irctc site, it seems is captured by some Mafia at 10 am every day. The most shameless Railway Minister India has ever seen!!!!
During tatkal booking for Chennai trains error is appearing as 'high load' always. Sir, your kind attention is requested for an investigation in this regard
@AshwiniVaishnaw
@AshwiniVaishnaw Sir, @IRCTCofficial Tatkal for Delhi-Bihar is totally useless! Site freezes for 10 mins with "High Demand" errors, and then all seats vanish!
How long will common passengers suffer? Fix this broken server issue!
@RailMinIndia@PMOIndia@RailwaySeva @ECRlyHZP
How is anyone supposed to book a Tatkal ticket on this pathetic website? Fix your servers and stop wasting passengers’ time! @IRCTCofficial@RailMinIndia
@IRCTCofficial ,@irctc_app
Hi , I think it is a big scam to open the Tatkal at 10 am and when you do the Tatkal through irctc official app . It come s as load issue and within seconds it is gone not sure what is happening and what is the fix ???
Thank you @IRCTCofficial for providing us world best Tatkal Booking Service.
Have been trying to book the tickets from last 7 days and the IRCTC website shows evergreen error. “We are experiencing High Load- Please retry”
My retry has been going on from last 1 week.
