Seat no 63

I had been to shirdi on 2nd July along with surekha w/o Ts.we had a great trip.enjoyed it thoroughly.way back we boarded bokaro express at vijayawada.I took my ticket out and S7 63  was my seat booked.when I  went to the berth it was already occupied to my dismay.The occupant showed the ticket and he was right.People around ,all educated ,uneducated,compared both the tickets
And said the seat is booked twice

The railways are sloppy
They just do not care
Callous
They have put a woman to hardship.
Thank god it is a3hrs journey,
These computers!!!!!
The above were comments by copassengers.
The TTE came  checked the ticket apologized and he made me sit in HIS seat.
He instructed a RPF constable to see that I get down at kavali comfortably
The train reached Bapatla
I just casually took my ticket out

That 63 is my AGE    The seat number is 1
Still iam surprised how so many minds were  influnced  and so many eyes blinded by MY MISTAKE
