I beg to disagree with all posters. Please go to the station and ask for the ticket. They will give it three days in advance of date of journey.... since the distance is more than 200 kms. Now booking UR tickets is allowed three days in advance from anywhere to anywhere on the IR system. Please try it and post your response. You may find an initial NO from the PRS counter. Persist, and let me know.
There is a rule about this.. I am trying to search for it for the last four days.
Good

Thanks for quick clarification.
The relevent portion as obtained on UTS system :-
.........
More than 1.2 crore Rail passengers travel in unreserved coaches and trains every day and thus form the bulk of rail users. For this category of passengers Railways have introduced the facility of Computerised Unreserved Ticketing System was initially provided at 10 stations of Delhi area in the

first stage as a pilot project on 15 August 2002 . Another 13 stations of Delhi area were provided with UTS counters in the second stage on 2 nd Oct, 2002. It has since been extended in an integrated manner to more than 180 stations all over the country. UTS system has been planned to take over the Printed Card Tickets or tickets issued by self Printing Ticket Machines gradually.
UTS will provide the facility to purchase Unreserved Ticket 3 days in advance of the date of journey. A passenger can buy a ticket for any destination from the UTS counter for all such destinations which are served by that station. The cancellation of tickets has also been simplified. Passengers can cancel their tickets one day in advance of the journey from any station provided with a UTS counter. On the day of journey, the ticket can be cancelled from station from which the journey was to commence.
---------------
As on today, how many stations are covered under UTS ? Info is required.
Can it be interpreted that General Ticket is to be booked from any UTS counter for a station having UTS counter ? I think the general ticket booking is from a boarding station to any other station served by the station network. That too, it is Possible only if the station has UTS counter.
To be more specific, Jalgaon to Hoshangabad - General ticket can be booked at Jalgaon UTS counter - 3 days in advance and not from Ahmedabad. So plz correct me if I am wrong in the interpretation.
