Taking to micro-blogging site, KTR said now we realise double engine that runs this country is actually “Modi & ED” .
KTR also lamented the Railways’ decision to permanently scrap the senior citizens’ concession on train fares.
Taking to social media, KTR urged Minister of Railways Ashwini Vaishnaw to “review” the decision.
“Dear @AshwiniVaishnaw Ji, Taking care of our elderly people is not just a responsibility but our duty. Was saddened to read that Govt of India has decided to remove the senior citizen concession in train fares. Request you to review the decision & take a compassionate view,” KTR wrote on Twitter.
The Railway Ministry on Wednesday told the Parliament that it had no intention of bringing back the train fare concession for senior citizens after withdrawing it in March, 2020. The 40 per cent discount on train fares for senior citizens was stopped owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. (Maxim News)
