Indian Railways will not give concessional tickets to other passengers including senior citizen concessions in the fare yet. Railway, Communications and Electronics and Information Technology Minister Ashwini Vaishnav has said that in view of the Kovid epidemic and protocol, concession in fare for all classes of some passengers will not be resumed yet. He told that suggestions have been received for the restoration of all Concession Tickets. The Railway Ministry has investigated the matter, but as of now it has not been implemented.

Who will get the discounted ticket

He told the Parliament that except 4 categories of Divyangjan, 11 categories of patients and students, there will be no concession on tickets in any other category. Let us inform that after the Covid Mahamari, the concession on tickets was abolished from 20 March 2020. The Railway Minister was asked in Parliament why the Railways abolished train travel concessions during the lockdown and whether he has received a request for it.

Question asked in parliament


He was also asked that when less than 12 per cent passengers avail the benefit of concession, will the government restore the concession in fare which has been given for a long time keeping in view the social need and responsibility?
