Traveling in Sleeper Class with General Ticket

Reported on March 12, 2011 from New Delhi , Delhi  ι Report #26665

Hi

I travel a lot between my hometown in UP( 180 Kms from Delhi) and Delhi. Mostly I prefer TRAIN Journey and never intend to book a ticket because of last minute decision or impulse travel as 95% times I can bribe the TTE at same or lower cost of getting a II Sleeper/III AC ticket.
I have bribed almost 100 times to TTE and witnessed 1000+ stories of my family members over a period of 15 years.
From past few months, as an awakened citizen, I have pledged 'not to bribe' and instead pay Fine to the govt?

Nowdays, I am so angst with the widespread corruption and the ripple effects of losses in terms of inflation, destructive capitalism, bad national character, loss of opportunities and upliftment of mankind is stalled.

I hope, each one of us in this ********** will definitely put efforts to make a better society :)
