[Resolved] Indian Railways — allotment of railway berths to ladies and senior citizens | |||
I am aged 47 years and underwent knee surgery. my mother is aged 70 years and a patient who is unable to walk . when ever I book train tickets , inspite of repeated requests no lower berth is provided which is making our train journey a painful experience every time we travel by train. ultimately it is the co-passengers who are some times helping us by exchange of berths. many times railway department announced that if the age of the passenger is above 45 naturally system will provide lower berth with out any specific request. but it is not in practice. Was this information helpful? | |||

Even now, despite being a senior citizen above 60 years and requsting for lower berths, they have alloted MB and UB and the same is the case in both onward and return journey
Can the booking clerk see this and act according to the age God only knows Since wh en we board the train and request the co passengers they sometimes oblige but most of the time refuse as this is causing a lot of disturbance and mental agony for us
What is the purpose of asking for age and not alloting the berths accordingly
