Four railway stations in Bengaluru to be equipped for differently abled persons
In an effort to make railway stations more accessible for differently-abled passengers, the NGO Samarthanam Trust has joined hands with the South Western Railways and the private firm Sapiens to provide special services at four major railway stations in Bengaluru.
The project aims to provide Braille maps, signage, ticket counters, platform indicators, portable ramps, railings, modified toilets and special waiting rooms for the differently-abled passengers at the KSR Bengaluru, Bengaluru Cantonment, Whitefield, and Baiyappanahalli stations in Bengaluru.
On Thursday, March 24, a waiting room and other amenities were inaugurated at the main Bengaluru railway station by Divisional Railway Manager (Bengaluru), Shyam Singh, and other officials.
