Dear Sir, Feeling extremely happy to letting us know that your Divyangan Railway Card is now officially ready to be used… in theory! 🎉 But well… welcome to India, where things happen not the way they should, but the way they do. I applied three whole months ago, faced four rejections, and now I’m at the point where I’m starting to think the system has a personal grudge against me. 🙄 Ah, the so-called principle of equality enshrined in our Constitution… more like an elaborate fiction written to give us hope. 😏 Fake promises galore! Bye bye, equality 👋 At least we can laugh about it, right? 😅
