Mystery during Working in Indian Railways

Mystery during Working in Indian Railways

It was 1992,I was on duty.I was on checking duty on Dakshin Express NZM-HYB.I boarded the train at Nagpur Railway Station.At Warora 2000 Hrs ,I

entered another coach,at the EXIT passage near door,I found two extremely beautiful ladies in twenties standing/waiting.Both were with their new born babies.I asked them their tickets,when I found them searching their handbag,I asked them to be ready with tickets.I moved forward ,train was moving.After one minute I came back and found no ladies standing,I checked the doors were closed from inside,I checked lavatories,they were not inside.Where they disappeared when there was no place to hide. This is still a mystery to me.

My Working in Indian Railways

My Working in Indian Railways

When I started entering different coaches for Ticket Checking ,I found that passengers ask several questions,requests and complaints.One passenger from Mumbai,next from Chennai and so on,the coaches of the railways were and are filled with passengers from all walks of life in India.Each coach represents India in a beautiful manner ,displaying unity and integrity in uniform way.I never ignored any request,complaint,suggestion from passengers,I tried to solve the issue myself and wherever possible tried to communicate with higher officials.Soon I became familiar with internal working of all departments of Indian Railways.Trying to find solutions now helping me at my consultancy after my voluntary retirement named as

My First Day as Ticket Collector in Indian Railways

My First Day as Ticket Collector in Indian Railways

In 1990 at Sewagram Railway Station I began my railway career as Ticket Collector.I was the only Ticket Collector at the station. The first duty schedule was from 0800 Hrs to 1600 Hrs.On first day I came on station at 0730 Hrs and signed the Duty Muster.My duty was to collect tickets at gate/Exit and to check its validity.At Sewagram railway station at that time were three platforms.The exit gate as well as my separate office were in station building connected to Platform 1 via Foot over bridge.Whenever there was any train arriving I had to attend the gate.After 4 trains I found that the passengers coming at the Exit gate were all with valid tickets and no passengers  were ticketless.The main reason was I was in Uniform standing at the gate and almost all passengers used right short cut ground level exit by crossing the railway line at the end of platform.I noticed this and immediately wrote a letter to our Sr.DCM.{ This was the same Sr.DCM who awarded me as an Announcer earlier in January ]

The letter was like below………….

Respected Sir,

I respect the working style of yours and I believe you to fulfill my working request.I at the gate in uniform not able to nab the ticketless nor I able to detect any irregularity.I want you to give me a target so that I can move on the trains  and recover the railway dues.I will be highly obliged if you permit me to do such thing.

Yours Honest Employee

After two days ,I received an order from Sr.DCM ,allowed me to do work as per my schedule to achieve the given  target.Thereafter I not worked at the gate.

After completing practical training at Ahemadabad  as Fire Officer,I went back to Nagpur.There two Job postings waiting for me.One at Mumbai as JAO in BPT and Second at Wardha East [ now Sewagram ] Railway Station as Ticket Collector .Which job should I pick was the confusion.The job near to my residence was Ticket Collector and hence I joined Indian Railways as Ticket Collector at Sewagram Railway Station.

Vegetarian/Non-vegetarian Vinay Dadmal way

Normally by birth you are in a vegetarian / non-vegetarian family then you have no choice in a childhood.I born in a vegetarian family and hence by birth I am vegetarian.Later I studied in a residential school,there I got choice/option but I not changed my menu of vegetarian.Though I am vegetarian but I do not want to oppose non-vegetarians.Almost 95% people have no choice.
