GOVERNMENT OF INDIA (Bharat Sarkar) MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS (Rail Mantralya) (RAILWAY BOARD) के न के के No. 2009/TG-I/20/P/handicapped New Delhi, dated: 1५ .09.2009 Chief Commercial Managers, All Zonal Railways. (Commercial Circular No. 45 of 2009) Sub: Travelling of handicapped persons in the compartments earmarked for them in Garib Rath trains Instructions were issued vide this office letter No.2006/TG- 1/20/handicapped dated 01.12.2008(Commercial Circular No. 63 of 2008), wherein it has been advised that SLRD coaches should be treated as reserved till preparation of charts for booking by handicapped persons travelling on concession and at the time of preparation of charts, the berths which have not been booked will be kept vacant for use by roadside handicapped unreserved passengers. Since Garib Rath trains are fully reserved trains, the logic of keeping the unutilized accommodation in handicapped coaches vacant after preparation of charts needs to be reviewed. 2. Queries are also being received seeking clarification as to when concession is not allowed to handicapped persons in Garib Rath trains which are having subsidized fare structure, how handicapped persons will book tickets in these trains. On telephonic enquiry, it was found that different Railways are adopting different practice on this account. 3. The matter has been examined and it has been decided as under:- i) Whenever any handicapped person desires to book ticket in the coach earmarked for handicapped persons in Garib Rath trains, he/she will be required to produce an attested photocopy of the concession certificate along with the requisition and book the accommodation on payment of full fare of 3AC class of Garib Rath Express train. However, the original concession certificate should be carried by the passengers for verification. ~2/— My Document/Reservation facility/letter 2009 25 ii) The unutilised accommodation in the coaches earmarked for handicapped persons in Garib Rath Express trains should be released to RAC/waitlisted passengers at the time of preparation of charts. Necessary instructions may be issued to all concerned. This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of Ministry of Railways. कि (Chandralekha erjee) Executive Director Passenger Marketing Railway Board.
