Re: [AI] Concession to persons with disabilities in vande Bharat trains

BHAWANI SHANKAR VERMA Wed, 01 May 2024 08:58:10 -0700

Concession is available in rajdhani AC3 and shatabdi chaircar. in covidtime all concessions had been withdrawn and now been restored exceptsr.citizen concession.

Shatabdi was in second chair car this was before covid i remember.
but Vande Bharat was last year.

    yes, it should be raised with railway board commercial section or
    with CCPD or department of disability afairs. vande bharat is a
    premium train service. we don't demand concession but we demand
    attention. I also traveled 2-3 times in vande bharat and faced
    simillar issue specially while returning from toilet to your seat
    in AC chair car. that is the reason I prefer to travel in regular
    trains.

    Hi All,

    I travelled this morning from Ahmedabad to Mumbai Borivali & have
    been frequently travelling Mumbai Gujarat route. My observations-

    * Since there is no way to identify myself as a passenger with
    visual impairment while booking ticket, there is no
    awareness/alertness amongst the team of such a passenger.
    * I got to understand from fellow passengers that there is an
    indicator/display that shows the number of kilometers to be
    covered. We wouldn't be able to tell otherwise.

    * Until the ticket was checked, there was no way for me to
    identify attendants on duty. God to hear on the announcement that
    there are helpline number stickers stuck near doors.

    * Unlike airline staff, the Vand Bharat team is yet to be trained
    to assist with getting off. The train hault at Borivali station
    is only 2 minutes & I was lucky to have other passengers wheel
    down my bag onto the platform.

    So, when we do write to them  we'd want to keep some of these &
    other points in mind.

    Regards,
    Payal Jethra

        Hello Ajay and all,

        I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to bring to your
        attention that there seems to be neither any concession nor
        any quota in seat booking for Vande Bharat.

        I have taken the initiative to file a petition regarding
        this matter in the CCPD office. Let's wait and watch how
        things progress from here.

        Best regards,

        Danish Mahajan

                No, Duronto Express trains do not offer concessions

                two upper berths for people with disabilities (PWDs)
                on a first-come, first-served basis.
                However, PWDs must have to pay the full fare for
                this facility.

                        Vande Bharat does not provide any concession
                        for persons with disability.

                        It just offers full ticket.

                        For more details you can check out this
                        official PDF available on IRCTC site:

                            I wanted to enquire if someone has been

                            If yes then what is the percentage of
                            concession that person with disabilities
                            are eligible for? Thanks in advance
