Ministry of Railways changes rules for travel to help differently abled (Divyang) passengers



At present, the concession for train travel by the Divyang (differently abled) passengers are given only when they are accompanied by an escort. With a view to help them, the Ministry of Railways have decided to permit booking of concessional tickets for Divyang (differently abled) passengers, even when they are not accompanied by an escort. However, there will be no change in the eligibility criteria for availing the concession, which are in force now. This has come into effect from today (15.06.2016), that will save the Divyang (differently abled) passengers the compulsion of buying tickets for the escort also.
