IRCTC not working. Cash wrongly debited

For 3 days I noted IRCTC web site not working. No properly working alternative site provided in its place. I found one site as rail yatri, but it gives error in payment stage. It deducted ticket amount from my account and did not provide any reservation or even ticket. It's strange that a web site used by thousands is closed down so rashly.
