Rajdhani/Shatabdi Facilities for Gallantry Award Winners

All Galantry awardees, particularly the Kirti and Shaurya Chakra awardees may be feeling too delighted to avail the facilities of Rajdhani/Shatabdi Ex.
Limit your happiness since Railways have computerised the availability of seat for pass holders. Which means that a seperate Waitlist in the form of DPWL/1 or DPWL/12 is reflected in the ticket and your Number will come only if there is no wait list in the general class. In another term, the benefit is just a fun or feel good factor. Even if seats are available in the general quota you will be isuued with DPWL.
Happy journey in Rajdhani/Shatabdi.
Somebody please tell the railways.
