Partially waitlisted Tatkal ticket

When they say 'partially confirmed', it means, one is confirmed and the other one is NOT confirmed!!!!

##What type of Waiting List it is?
What is the number of the Train?
What is the Class of Travel?
Is this an E-Ticket (or) I-Ticket?
If not, has this been purchased in the Counter?

AND

finally what is the Date of Journey?

Mr.Vipulh,

##Will the Press Note of Government of India, reproduced below, be of any help for you?
--------------------
Waitlist e-tickets available now
Now a passenger will not have to stand in long queues to book a waitlist ticket.

New Delhi: Now a passengerÂ will not have to stand in long queues to book a waitlist ticket.Â In a customer friendly initiative, the Ministry of Railways in India has started the waitlist e-ticketing service through Internet from May 10 this year for all trains.

The Ministry informed that the facility is available on the e-ticketing website of Indian Railways Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC).

After chart preparation, the waitlisted e-ticket may become fully confirmed, or partially confirmed and partially RAC, or partially RAC and partially waitlisted, or remain fully waitlisted, the Ministry said.

In the first three cases, the names of the passengers will appear on the reservation chart and they will be allowed to travel as per the reservation rules, whereas fully waitlisted passengers will not be allowed to board the train as their names will not be included in the chart.
The Ministry further stated that the refunds of fully waitlisted e-tickets after chart preparation will be credited to user or agents' accounts automatically. The customers need not have to apply for cancellation and refund, as their tickets will be cancelled online by Railways.—iGovernment Bureau

Train no: 7603
Class: SL
It is a E-ticket
Date of journey: 25/9/2009 (tomorrow)
Type: Tatkal

Position as of now: WL6/Confirmed (first one is confirmed)
WL7/WL1

I read the press note. So I understand that my name will be there in the chart. What I didn't undestand is the term "as per the reservation rules". As far as I know, reservation rules state that WL passengers are not allowed to travel (correct me if I am wrong).

Is this true even in case of partially waitlisted tickets?

##Since your ticket is NOT getting cancelled AUTOMATICALLY, and your name is appearing in the Chart, and this is a festival season, perhaps, the TTE might accept your request for adjusting on the confirmed berth.
----------
##In any case, there is a slight possibility for CKWL.1 getting confirmed!!!

##Please note, there would NOT be any RAC before CKWL!!!!!
