Hello Akhilesh,
Instead of presenting many drafts, raising demands before the Ministry of Indian Railways and if they have always chosen to ignore the concerns and issues of disabled, now, we should forced to discuss these issues during the rail budget in the parliament house. If any disabled person is working as a member of parliament, the issues like online concessional tickets, which is pending before the Ministry of Indian Railway and honourable court of Delhi may be sort out during coming railway budget. Dharnas and protested things should be the final step. I think, presenting our demands during the rail budget will be more effective.

The case is also pending regarding the online concessional tickets for the disabled in the high court of Delhi, but We've no updates regarding the progress of the case. I think this time we should plan some Dharna sort of thing and for an indefinet time. Views are awaited.
