Should Railway employees be given free passes?
The Railways is very reluctant to give concessions to senior citizens and disabled people. For example, the way they have worded while booking online, senior citizens are tricked into foregoing their concession while thinking they are opting in to avail the concession. The words appear to be deliberately vague so that they lose the concession.
Similarly, when one goes to book tickets in Railway counters, we are repeatedly asked for forego either fully or partly the concession.
While this is so, how is it that Railway employees are given so many free passes that too in higher classes?
Let the Railways be honest and give us the figure of the proportion of free passes to employees to the concession given to senior citizens and disabled people.
