Hi Vis,

This forum is definately the best. I've got another piece of concessional information for all of us to share:

The Ministry of Railways offers a discount of 75% on fare for all classes, and 50% on season tickets to a person with disability on production of a valid Certificate of Disability. Concession is also allowed for an escort accompanying a disabled person. Those with visual impairment and locomotor disability are eligible for 50% discount on airfare if they travel by Indian Airlines.
