Dear Friends,
These are the tactics handled by Indian railways to put ourselves in
trouble.
Many of HP persons are in need of escort for their mobility.
If they want to help us, They can extend the seats reserved for us.
Already they started to remove disabled coaches in trains.
Now this. What is their next plan.
Is there nobody to represent our rights in Indian railways.
They want to knock off the rights of disabled persons.
Just they want to provide a political touch(that is just for name sake)
only.
These are the step by step process for cut shorting the rights of
disabled persons. Not only railways, all transport organizations are
running for money and by the money. Our government is provoking these
actions by remaining silent. They have provided a special name as
devyong ffor that purpose only.
Now a days, in our country only fittest can survive. All others should
keep quite.
In Tamilnadu, they are not accepting concession in busses in week ends.
They are specifying the busses as special busses. So, Concession is not
valid in special busses. Here also, there is nobody to raise up our rights.
If we raise also, They will not consider about it.
Let the government can close up the useless concession & rules.
Thanks

Dear Rajesh,
Even I have faced this situation as described in your email.
I guess the reasons could be anyone from the below mentioned points
(1) Indian Railways reserve 4 berths in Sleeper and 2 berths in 3 AC
coaches.Many OH and HH people who book their ticket under this quota have
opted for without escort option as they are comfortable travelling alone.
Hence the last handicapped berth may or may not be available with berth
for escort.Further Madras High court has directed Southern Railways to
allow OH people to book tickets with or without escort. Earlier booking
ticket with escort was compulsory hence now many such OH have opted
without escort option if they can manage and want to travel alone.
(2) The problem of not getting tickets in 3AC coach is even more severe
because only 2 berths are reserved. If the first is booked as without
escort option then for next booking the escort might get a wait listed
ticket or may be in some other coach.
I hope I have answered your query.

Friends
As all of us Indian railways provides handicapped quota of two/four berths
in slipper class.
Recently, it was introduced in AC 3 tire also.
However, they have changed norms for it, making it a difficult experience.
Only the disabled passenger is given the berth and the escort is given
wait listed, or RAC or whatever normal availability is there.
Now it highly problematic as:
1. Escort is given seat somewhere else, maybe in another coach
defeating the purpose of escorting in the train.
2. Many a times, no confirm berth is given to escort.
3. Both the seats are shown as blocked, even if only one seat is
being given to the disabled, most probably normal waiting list is confirmed
on the remaining seat, thus snatching the berth from HP quota.
Maybe, railways has in mind to benefit more number of disabled by giving
quota only to them and not to the escorts.
But, escort is the genuine need, and Orthopedically handicapped persons
are given tickets only with the escort.
On the whole, it is totally undesirable, needlessly troubling the
disabled, and we should vehemently protest.
Now, it is the time for vehement action, if not violent action.
