Pranam AS wrong information sir. "After a few media reports claimed that the Indian Railways will restore fare concessions for senior citizens, it has now been fact-checked that the information is false. A section of media had published reports that Indian Railways has decided to resume concession for senior citizens with effect from July 1.
It has now been clarified that the Indian Railways has not made any such official announcement as of now. Its official Twitter handle shared a tweet by the fact check team of the Press Information Bureau (PIB) which claims the report of fare concession is factually incorrect (Fact check 16/6/22) KR IRS 2722 On Sat, 2 Jul 2022 at 16:23, 'N Sekar' via iyer123 <[email protected]> wrote: > As far as I know, they only ask for age proof at the time of booking and > it includes all Indians.
