It appears that Railway administration are now a day extremely busy with various development works around the country and as such unable to attend any type of request / prayer made to them. Recently on the occation of approving Rly. Budget’2010-11 Railway Minister assured that a special OSD will be posted at all railway divisions who will attend to all representations, appeals made in respect of concerned railway division. RM further advised every member of parliament who represented that railway do not entertain or acknowledge receipt of a request made, not to disturb them and allow them to continue with development works etc. The idea if implemented will be useful. A similar action is required to be introduced at Railway Board (the present system prevailing appears to be insufficient in all respect) so that representations, requests made to railway authority which cannot be dealt with at divisional level are settled with out loss of unreasonable time factor.
A specific case is placed below for perusal. Even 50th Reminder to highest railway authorities could produce any result or acknowledgement during the past 15 months (more than 450 days). Please have a look and offer your considered views / recommendations so that betterment is ensured. – Chinmay Kar 01-10-2010

I am really very happy to be with you all with my request on the occation of 50th glorious series of reminders and continue to wait by reminding till you refuse the prayer made by this Retd., Sr.Citizen Disabled right side of body fully paralyzed, cannot move out side with out an escort :-
The basic prayer is to allow his attendant / Escort free to travel in 2nd class may be allowed to travel along with his extreme disabled person who cannot move for what so ever purpose, a Comp. Rly Pass holder as detailed in his earlier prayers. The prayer made on Humanitarian Ground and as a Special case considering the difficulties explained in details vide series of letters referred to at above stands good. You are aware that pending approval this disabled had to cancel the intended south India pilgrimage tour at the fag end of his life.
Now this Retd. Disabled Sr.Citizen intends to visit pending south India pilgrimage spots along with his wife (aged 60 yrs a sickly asthmatic patient) only by this Nov'10 provided an escort is allowed to accompany me as prayed. A 60 year aged sickly lady cannot serve me as an escort which surely you will agree. [Since only daughter eligible to get pass ( Sikha Kar ) married on 27-06-2010 now onwards only myself and wife, both Sr.Citizen will travel with pass henceforth]** Now with the change of status after 27.06.2010, only self disabled and wife, with aged disability Sr.Citizen who cannot be an Escort to me request to allow my attendant (For my specific case Escort) to travel along with me in same class I TRAVEL
Again a time to time reminding this case have become necessary for a Hemaparasis Disabled(60%) right side of body fully paralyzed, cannot move out side to chase a case at different office as his prayer is not receiving attention by the Railway Administration probably due to very much tight schedule now a day. Considering this reminder twice in a week will henceforth will be issued. A certificate of Government Doctor (SDMO/Bongaon, Govt. of W.B) on Rly standard format is enclosed for ready appreciation who has certified that I cannot move without an escort. As committed earlier, a Further certificate issued by Chief Medical Supdt. / M.Rly. / Kolkata that I cannot move without an escort is enclosed as further documentation.
Hope this disabler’s case may get humanitarian consideration at any moment by a kind hearted human being and his prayer is approved. Thanking you all. Yours faithfully,

Suggestions made to all concerned, received from Sri. Barun Roy is pasted below for perusal and comments:-
ReplyDeleteNo need at all for counting total number of reminders issued beyond 50 and conducting a post mortem enquiry about negligence / ignorance of a person at the ministry. It is really surprising and painful to observe such neglect to a Disabled Sr.Citizen over the years when the ministry is headed by a most energetic, efficient lady Smt. Mamata Banerjee, who has respect for the Sr.Citizens especially to those who are disabled.
However railways may avail the opportunity to show sympatric consideration on humanitarian grounds to these disabled few extreme disabled Sr.Citizens during the ensuing “International Day of Persons with Disabilities - 3 December 2010” by allowing their attendant / escort to travel along with at the same compartment as prayed for. Road show, seminars, functions etc though considered not necessary may be arranged with out association of any NGO may be arranged at vacant stadiums where CWG’2010 conducted successfully few days back. Railway Minister may like to consider the proposal in view of her commitments at parliament that railways have some social responsibility towards countrymen. Submission ends.
