    I think there should be 2 to 3 chair-cars in all long route trains. Those should be reserve-able on the spot at the railway station. This will help in following ways :
    1. People who need to travel under emergency can avail such reservation facility, (not Tatkal because Tatkal needs mostly gets reserved in 2 days)
    2. People who travel on DAILY PASS between nearer stations can avail this facility
    3. This will make the life of long route travelers easy.
