What is the procedure for EQ quota especially for pregnant lady?
It is considered as a "disability" by IR hence you have to get a certificate from a Medical Officer and present it at the reservation desk/ station manager's office. Then you will be eligible for EQ and lower berth. Btw EQ is now merged with tatkal so all you have to do is show the letter and get a ticket (and fill the disability form if they ask).
For pregnant ladies travelling alone, there is a separate quota as SS quota,/LB quota. It can be availed by producing a medical certificate from registered medical practitioner at PRS.
At present it is for pregnant lady, female of >45 and male Senior citizen , Travelling ALONE. From 1/1/2016 , as per new modifications, 2 persons can be booked in same PNR for LB/SS quota, considering the eligibility criteria..
