Dear friends, I have been reading about difficulties of our friends in issuance of I-card by DRM of Northern Railways. I have been trying to find a circular and I succeeded in finding it on net. It appears to me that people in DRM office are deliberately troubling persons with disabilities. Therefore, I have decided to paste below the circular so that these people will not be able to harass any more. If all of you agree, we can fix up a date and all of us can reach there for our identity cards. In case, you people decide to join together, let me know and I will join you. My mobile No. is: 9868888124. The circular is pasted below:
