Pongal
Pongal, Thamizhar thirunaal so went home after 3 months to celebrate. Journey to trichy from Hyderabad was terrible this time, Since I didn't get confirmed tickets from Hyderabad to chennai.So I was travelling in footboard for some 5 hours.The important point in this travelling without, so one more achievement in life travelling in a train without ticket.
Thank god i got berth after 5.5 hours so happily slept after that.The problem doesn't end here. But more terrible things were waiting for me in chennai. Chennai Egmore station was full of passengers and all were standing in the queue to get the general tickets to the only available train in the morning. I too joined that slow paced queue and waited for almost an hour to get the ticket.
Here I have to mention the lethargic nature of Railway Employees, there was only two counters to isse tickets and the queues were miles long. They didn't thought of opening the remaining two counters.
Another important matter is, actually our country has developed drastically in the IT field.So they are using computer everywhere. But in the scenario which I am explaining the usage computer actually increases the total time spent per customer. The person has to wait for the slow printer to print the ticket.
So in this kind of scenario giving tickets in old fashion would made lot of peoples life easier or put a high quality printer in the ticket counters.
Again thank god, I got the ticket and caught the train with few minutes to spare.
After all this events finally home sweet home.
