Indian Railway Tatkal reservation issues and railway hoarding

reminder 20 on 29 june 2012 to secy-RB, EDPG.
 
Sirs/Madams:
Times of India Jun 27, 2012,says Ticketing officials in railways confirm tout tickets into berths. While the clerk is paid for each ticket, the security agencies have a monthly setup,says railway officer.
One wrote : Tatkal promotes adhocism and corruption.  MAKE RLY TKT PRICINGS as in flights but stop Tatkal.

I booked 2 tickets for JP-Delhi on JP-Dli superfast. CC and 3AC-with wL-36 and Tatkal WL-7. Though CC was not confirmed and I had to donate 40/- as cancellation charge,to Railway for allowing me to try to travel with it, 3AC was confirmed showing the at least 44 seats were hoarded by rail besides Tatkal hoarding?

Show the no of hoarded tickets so that we know whether to book Tatkal or general WL ticket if
a. you will continue to hoard for Rail quota
b. You will continue to hoard under Tatkal Quota
c. You will not discontinue the 4 month long booking
d. You will abolish Tatkal and adv booking than to have just one tatkal booking -2 days advance. Lets everyone have fair chance.

Have transparency than manipulate behind screen as put by Rail official.

At one place, onion hoarders are raided, govt dept hoarding goes on with impunity in name of service!

Abolish Tatkal and clarify how my WL 36 got confirmed even when u give pref to Tatkal and there were 7WL in tatkal and that too in 3AC?

PS: I have informed that we can't transfer the ticket of child to mother or Mother to daughter for price difference. Is this rule in Railway rule or adhoc rule followed by railway to maximise the earning on thus saved seat and earning in cancellation and Tatkal booking? Clarify please!
