friend, yes you are right Railway concession issued by DRM Office is valid for just 5 years, I myself have renewed in 2020 it is also true I am unable to understand why this UDID card is necessary because recently while renewing Delhi Transport corporation bus pass they demanded me to show UDID card and also SDM Disability card, which is issued by SDM of local area here in Delhi, I argued after UDID card then why this SDM card is necessary then the lady sitting on counter just throwed my documents in front of me and told me to go to DTC head quarters and enquire there, but without any arguement I showed her SDM ID card.
