I CAN book a ticket for Navjeevan exp 12655: for journey commencing on 14.02.2013 from Ahmedabad

What to do?
Any solution? or just accept Separate ticket and forget the 'Telescopic' benefit.

Book 12661 on the day next with the original ticket of yesterday asking reservation from MAS to MDU at NIL payment.
