Action - Making Railways more Accessible for Senior Citizens/Spl Needs People

I have, in the past also, and even now suggested the provision of at least a slope for taking UP TO and DOWN FROM the overhead bridges from the platforms. Antiskid floor construction has to be provided.
The provision of escalators is for able bodied senior citizens only. Those who are not capable of smooth walking, limping or wheel chair riders can not use/and shall not be able to use without taking A CALCULTAED RISK. They may fall making their life further miserable.
Provision of the SLOPES is an economical, speedier solution and can be provided at all the stations wherever OVERHEAD BRIDGES exist to change over the platforms.

RAILWAY MINISTRY AND THE HONORABLE RAILWAY MINISTER MR. SURESH PRABHU ,THROUGH THIS LOCAL CIRCLE VENUE/AGENCY IS, ONCE AGAIN, REQUESTED/SUGGESTED TO LOOK INTO THEM MATTER SERIOUSLY.

MAY I GET AN ACKNLOWLEDGEMENT AND A FEED BACK FROM THE RAILWAY MINISTRY AND THE HONORABLE RAILWAY MINISTER MR. SURESH PRABHU - IN THE NAME OF HONORING LOCAL CIRCLE VIEWS - OF WHAT THEY THINK OF THIS SOLUTION.

Mechanization of movement involves RISKS though still recommended.

BUT provision of a slope for taking UP TO and DOWN FROM the overhead bridges from the platforms with ANTISKID FLOOR construction POSES NO RISK TO ANY ONE FROM YOUNG PEOPLE TO ABLE BODIED SENIOR CITIZENS, HANDICAPPED, WHEELCHAIR RIDERS ALIKE.
ISN'T IT????????????

IS ANY BODY LISTENING...........??????????????
