I think, the complaint numbers of railway, which we halve already discussed, would be helpful.

One disabled coach for disabled, and another for non-disabled!!!!!

Wondering, if any of you know updated information. Additionally, wanted to share an incident I have noticed recently. Howrah - Chennai Superfast mail has two such coaches one at the front and another towards the end of train. When a couple of passengers with disabilites went to front side coach, it was crowded with all non-disabled users and couple of policemen standing there told that it's not their responsibility to get them vacated and the second coach which is just before the guards coach gets such support and those two folks had to walk all the way to end of the train. Yes, the guard was supervising the coach and was not allowing any passenger who does not have a disability. I was shocked, when there are two coaches, why they do not offer necessary support. Since that was a station where train halts almost 20 minutes, those folks were able to walk all over the train, but what could have happened if train halts only for a minute or two or if they are mobility impaired? Do you all think, taking up this issue with CCPD office would help?
