hello Amjad, Why should not take this mater to railway officials and railway
ministry? If we take this issue in large scale, they will do something for
us. Because it is not dealt with financial concerns. I'm sorry to open my
mind most of us are keeping quiet. Whenever you try, please inform me i will
also send a mail to the concerned authorities.Let us do combinely.
Surya.

Hi Amjad,
I think, almost two months ago, we have discussed on this issue.
Your information is totally wrong.
All Disabled persons (included blind) can get reservation in handicapped
quota in only sleeper and no quota in ACC OR AC THIRD AND OTHER CLASSES.
For concession, For details, you can check in Fare link of
indianrail.go.in

Rakesh.

Subject: [AI] Query regarding railway reservation quota for the
visuallychallenged.
Hello List,
I have a query regarding the special reserve quota for the blind in the
indian railway in second sleeper, chair cars or in AC. How much special
quota does available for the VI persons in railway to get the
accommodation facility. I heard that there is no special quota for the VI
persons. According to the railway website,
www.indianrail.gov.in
and the railway call centre 139, a blind cannot get the special quota to
travel in any of the classes; however, the special quota is reserved for
all the handicapped people.
Suppose, if a VI person wants to travel a long journey and there is no
chance to confirm his/her ticket upto the date of journey. In this case,
what action he has to take. There is no use to give a written application
to the railway authority, because again they will commit about the same.
Friends, can we take some serious action to get this facility in the
railway?
I hope, the same query may have in your mind, but it cannot be discuss
yet.
Thanks and regards,
Amjad
