Traveling in Disabled compartment

To

The concerned officer,

Indian Railways.

Respected Sir,

Sub: Travel in Disabled compartment - Information - Reg.,

My name is Purushotham. I am physically challenged person. Here i want get the information about traveling in "For Disabled" compartment which is in luggage cum guard bogie. I want to clarify that if a disabled person taken a general ticket is not permitted to travel in "For disabled compartment". If it is inforce.By taking general ticket having no Railway concession certificate with disabled person will become general people, is he not called disabled.

Why i am telling this is on 20.04.2008 i have travelled in Sheshadri Express from Katpadi Junction to Vijayawada junction. I have taken general 2nd class ticket. when i entered into the "For Disabled" compartment the RPF constable not allowed me to sit in that compartment. He was saying that no person without Railway concession certificate not allowed into this compartment. If it is true then again i ask if a disabled person take general ticket will become general person mean not physcially challenged.

So, I request you to please give me the information about this.

Thanking you sir,

Purushotham
