A long overdue step.
Don't know why it had to be judiciary doing it.
Hope now at least, TCs would stop harassing us
blind passengers about without escort tickets.
The hearing impaired are still given only 50% concession.

Subject: [AI] Now concession to orthopedically disabled without escort also
Rlys: Disabled can now travel alone on concessional ticket

BHOPAL: Now orthopaedically handicapped,
paraplegic and specially abled passengers will
be able to go for rail travel alone, without an attendant.
They will also be given tickets on concessional
rates which are currently provided only when
they have an attendant with them. A notification was issued
in this regard by the railway board on Wednesday
following an order of the high court of Madras.

In one of its orders, the court said, "The
disabled persons who are not accompanied by any
attendant should not be denied concession." The orders will
be implemented from June 15 throughout the
country, said a senior official from Bhopal division.
Currently, as per IRCA coaching tariff No. 26
part I (Volume II) 25 and 29, concession in
passenger fare is permissible for orthopaedically handicapped,
paraplegic and specially abled who cannot travel
without an attendant. They are given 75 per cent
concession in tickets for second class, sleeper, first
class, AC and chair car, while the concession is
50 per cent in AC 2 tier and AC first class on
producing adequate certificates. 50 per cent concession
is inj the form of seasonal discount on ticket for them.
Adding to the facilities in railways for
disabled passengers, tickets issued through
computerised passenger reservation system, one lower berth should
be allotted to the handicapped person and the
person accompanying him/her person should be
allotted middle or upper berths, nearby, as available.
After departure of the train, if there are
vacant lower berths available in the train, and
if any physically handicapped person has booked ticket under
handicapped concessional ticket system, he/she
should be allotted the lower birth as per the requirement.
