Sir,
I went for reservation with my military warrant to have reservation from jamnagar to allahabad . I filled up the reservation form "from jamnagar to vadodara (saurashtra exp) & vadodara to new delhi (rajdhani exp) & new delhi to allahabad (rajdhani exp) . He told me the reservation in rajdhani can't be given from "vadodara" , he may give it from ahemdabad . when i asked the reason , he told me that the distance through vadodara (rajdhani exp route) is more than ahemdabad (rajdhani exp route) but i have checked that the distance is more but after including 15 % in ahemdabad rajdhani exp route ,total distance through vadodara rajdhani exp route is less than the ahemdabad rajdhani route.
