Subject: Concessions and facilities for V.I.P. in public road
transportation in various states
Dear List members,
on the behalf of NFB Karnataka I would like to have some informations
regarding concession /facilities available to VIP in public road
transportation in various states.
As this list has representation of all states, so members of different
states are requested to respond the following queries
1. How much concession in fair is given to V.I. person in your state?
2. If the concession is available only to the V.I. Commuter, or
his/her escort also ?
3. Whether the concession is given only to totally blind person or low
vision also?
4. Whether the concession is restricted upto the boundaries of your
state or it is also available in neighboring states upto where the
buses of your state road services operate?
5. If the concession is allowed only in ordinary services or in luxury
services also?
6. If a permanent pass is issued to avail the concession or it
requires a periodic renewal?
7. If advance reservation of seats in long journey is allowed or not?
8. If any income limit has been prescribed to avail the
concession/facilities?
I do believe that learned members from all states would oblige me to
respond all afforstated queries infact, we at Karnataka are in
process of negotiation with the state government to review the scheme
of free travel facility for visually challenged. So the informations
received from all of you may help us in better negotiation
With regards
Gautam Agarwal
General Secretary
