Appeal to Railways

Sir, - If I remember right, the present rule for break of journey in Railways is only after 50 km of travel. Now that the Railways is kind enough to issue tickets on concession to senior citizens for any length of journey, it will be fair enough to permit them at least to break journey after 300 km, leaving the other requirements undisturbed.

This permission should be made available to any group travelling in the company of a senior citizen, to begin with. Of course if the Railways is game to extend the same facility to all the travelling public, well and good.

Antony Palocaren,
