It would be good if you could tell us the step by step process so that we can encourage more people to make cards.

But, the sad thing is, we cannot express our thoughts clearly on X due to character limits. So, going for Rail Madat complain. Because, I am not at all happy how the concerned person was guiding me to go to the nearest Bangalore government hospital and get the concession certificate. He was not at all agreeing with my points. Let's see what I can do here. But, this X should be scrap. Because, It is not allowing non-premium users to share their thoughts.

It's truly frustrating when beneficiaries face so many struggles, which defeats the purpose of these facilities. They are meant to simplify our lives and improve our quality of living, but instead, they often cause more stress.

As I stated the other day, Not only this, I have seen people asking and taking hefty sum of money in name of representation of disabled claiming helping them fighting on behalf of them, taking their cases in all matters including accessibility to proper channels etc. because it might give unwanted turn to the subject in concern, won't speak any further.

Either they did not represent us properly, or they failed to put enough pressure. The institutions that are working for visually impaired people also have this responsibility. If there is a problem with the website, they should get it fixed. And if they are not getting it fixed, then they should not even have the right to represent us. This is not just in the railways – it happens everywhere. I have seen it many times in banks as well, where visually impaired people are not given proper facilities because of lack of awareness. So, the organizations working for visually impaired people should either do their job properly or else seriously reconsider their role On Fri, 12 Sept 2025, 1:23 pm Sandesh, <[email protected]> wrote: Yes it seems. Because it is clear violation of the circular published by the Railways. If this is the case as the person states, why then the circuar for blind allowing UDID in place of concession certificate is published by the railways? You can raise this again to RailMadad or any social media handle of Railways telling them how your own people violate guidelines and circulars published by the Railways which actually mean to ease the process for getting Railway card for blind people. And if possible, mention the name of the person you spoke with. And things such as "we are not allowing online certificates on UDID basis" also shows sheer arrogance.

Just to give you all a quick update which I've shared yesterday, I've spoken with the Mumbai Central DRM office concession department guy. He is saying that we are not allowing the online concession only on the basis of UDID card. He is referring to point 7 and point 3 from the circular january 2025 which requires a concession certificate issued by the hospital. He told me to go to the nearest government hospital to get the concession and then reapply for the online railway concession. I was trying to make him understand about point 5 from the circular but he was not agreeing because, point number 3 and 6 and 7 specifically for concession. What should I do now? Should I again raise a complaint on twitter? Regards, Stallone On Fri, Sep 12, 2025 at 12:19 AM Saravanan K <[email protected]> wrote: Dear Friends, Please share the circular here.

I have finally received rejection for my online railway concession for not uploading offline concession. But, As soon as I messaged Railway seva on X, They have raised my complaint and one mam from the DRM office of Mumbai Central called me. I've explained my problem and she has given me a number through which I can contact the concession department of Mumbai and she has also told me to send them the circular of Railways. Thank you guys for the amazing support that you guys are doing to each other. Lets see, what positive response I'll get tomorrow!

But, the concern is that issuance of ID card is solly depend on the DRM office. each and every DRM office have its local saying. I request you all to contact railway board authorities and ask them to educate their software team and DRM officials regarding this circular. On 9/11/2025 3:01 PM, Sandesh wrote: Namaskar all! So, finally ,I got my awaited online Railway concession certificate. I got it sitting at home on basis of UDID card. Perhaps, I am the first one who got it UDID basis. I got a call today from the concerned department person telling me that your card is ready and can be printed now. I checked my messages and by the time I concluded my conversation with him, I got the required SMS. Due to accessibility issue of Divyangjan application, (although I managed to apply myself by my own), I was not able to get print option using both JAWS as well as NVDA. I called the concerned person again to ask whether it could be really printed, he not only checked it but also sent me the pdf for card printout. So, in short, I always believe, we should talk and interact, try to convince, complaint is the last refuge to take. What happened, I waited for 18 days, I wasn't in hurry, trusted his words that the concerned signatory officer has really retired, took the necessary follow up and the result is there in front of all of us. Here, I take the opportunity to thank Shree Bhavanishankar Verma as he told me that there is the circular of Railways which clearly states that UDID card works if the person is blind, otherwise I was of view of words of divyangjan application manual only saying the same things. Hence, I firmly decided to get card issued on this basis. Railway people here in context were also aware of This circular but not finding the way to implement. Anyway, someone has to start it, and they did and my card is ready. The only thing I did not like here is that my Railway card validity is of 5 years but my UDID is valid for lifetime. When asked about it, he said that this circular came in January and my disability certificate is printed before that, that is April 2024, hence all applicants whose disability certificates issued before the date of this circular will be receiving 5-years validity Railway concession card. He also told that there was no human interference, all is done by the software on submitted documents basis. Logically, I wasn't convinced, but the joy of getting it done UDID basis is really worth and error of 5 years validity instead of lifetime, and Divyangjan software/application/portal rectifications could be done with as time elapses. Now, people could apply and get their cards issued by uploading UDID cards if they're not having Railway concession certificates. With thanks and regards Vande Mataram Sandesh -- Disclaimer: 1.
