- Travelling in the wrong compartment
- Paid INR 50
I am a CA student from Chennai. I went to Gudur for an audit. And I was returning to Chennai after completing my work. I don't know Telugu and managed to get information with amount of English the employee knows... I was told that my train will come at 9.00 in platform no 1. I bought a general ticket. I got into other compartment to avoid missing my train. I know I should go to general compartment the adjacent compartment was an AC compartment so I couldn't pass through. So I patiently waited but in vain. When TTE came he examined my ticket. and took my ticket along with him. I don't know why. When he returned he asked me to pay 50 Rs. He doesn't know Tamil. When I tried to explain in English he didn't listen. He was busy claiming 450 from another tamil family as they were also in my situation. To reach home as soon as possible without any further complications I paid him 50 Rs. But I couldn't forgive myself for doing such thing. I need to know my rights regarding train travel. What should I do...?
