Hello,
I think before 2 years, I made a complain regarding not getting
accommodation in HP quota to the railway ministry directly. I got the
reply
that as per rule blind person can be given accommodation in PH quota.

Hi,
not only that, in their perspective, blind is different from
handicapped. even handicapped reserved berths are not alocated to
visually challenged people. I have argued and registered a complaint
in this regard but no concrete step has not been taken so far.

dear friends,
a full air conditioner train known as "Garib rath" is running in
different parts of india.
a dissable coach is also attach in this. but it is joke for blind
persons to travell in this train. because, there is no concession for
us.
when i asked about it to railway counter, they replied me that, it is
only for O.H persons. is it true? please share if you have any
information about it.
with best regards. deepak chawda.
