For RailFans, the Journey itself is the Destination. - Sreerup Patranabis

क्या मज़ाक बना रखा है?
एक तरफ तो सभी members रेलवे और रेलवे स्टाफ की कमी निकालते रहते हैं और TTE को भ्रष्ट बताते रहते हैं।और दूसरी तरफ जब कोई सही सलाह माँग रहा है तो कोई उससे कह रहा है कि चुपचाप जाकर बैठ जाना और कोई कह रहा है कि कुछ ₹ दे देना किन्तु सही सलाह नही दे रहे
अगर अच्छा चाहते हो तो अच्छे की सलाह भी दो।

का minimum fare 570/-₹ है।
इसमें से जितने का आप normal टिकट ले चुके हैं, उतना कम करके सीधे TTE को देकर receipt लीजिये।
जानबूझकर कर रेल को धोखा देना एक गैर जमानती अपराध है।
और आज के बाद भृष्टाचार पर कोई बात न हो तो ज्यादा बेहतर है क्योंकि यत्रो ही कर्मचारी को गलत रस्ते पर चलने को मज़बूर करता है।

You have paid for extra journey. Thats your decision to travel from ropar or nangal dam. But all depends that whether your train's TTE don't object. Because he is the sole authority on train and hardly they would say for so short journey. But do take a general ticket from ropar to ambala cantt as your boarding point is changed. A simple general ticket can do lots of miracles in our country trains. Problem arises in longer legs like if someone books from place A to place C with boarding from place B. But distance between place A to place B is large, then IR allocates your seat to some other person who books from place A to place B. Then you have no right to sit on your seat before your boarding point.

saying from my experience. But still if TTE asks you, then tell him truthfully everything.

Government humse choti choti fijul ki baato pe 10-10 rs leti hai. Just for example if we book a ticket from irctc, then under the name of service charge, catering charge, bank charges etc etc bolke regular fare se 30-40 rs extra le leti hai. Kitne hi transactions mein hidden charges ke naam pe extra paise liye jate hain.
So if a person do some short cuts for the convenience of himself, then there is nothing wrong in it. After all these so called "hypocratic" rules & regulations are made for the convenience of common people only.

todna galat baat hai but rules ko dusre tarike se follow karna galat nahi hai.
Bina ticket travel karna galat hai but reservation karke previous station se general ticket leke chadna acceptable hai.
