How we got a seat

Reported on March 5, 2011 from Kolkata , West Bengal  ι Report #27783

We were a group of people returning from a conference. We had missed our train to chennai in the last minute. We had reserved tickets for the missed train and we were told to wait for a day to change them. We were only girls and since accommodation was a problem we decided to go. We paid the TTR 2500INR for one berth which we all took turns and shared. But when the next TTR came in some other station we had to pay him again. So we also took turns to pay them all! However in the end our parents were relieved that we reached safe. When its about our safety we just felt happy that we at least can bribe someone and reach home safe. That seemed like the easiest option than anythin for us!!
