I am rather very much at a loss to understand as to why the Elevators installed at the Bangalore City Railway (SBC) Station with Indian Railways funds are not operated for months. Even the newly installed one which I saw with garlands over it's door on 28th April when I was travelling to Chennai, was not in service apart from the other elevators. These elevators were of and would be great help for all Senior Citizens and differently abled persons.
In fact, I still recall the other day when I was travelling to Mangalore some time in January, the plight of an old man with highly disbaled leg struggling to climb up the stairs the platform.

it not shameful that we as Indians some of whom excel in Western countries, althopugh capable of doing great things, show such diplorable attitude wghen it comes to maintaining service and extending help to the Senior Citizens and differently abled persons.
I recall some time back a news paper report or announcement, I think by Indian Railways that Bangalore City Railway Station would be made "World Class" My fisrt recaction was nothing but a scorn!
I always believe, India is far far away from respicting and caring Senior Citizens and differently abled people!
How unfortunate, so much funds wasted away, perhaps to fill up some pockets?

there are electric car avilable for senior citizen at bangalore station. any one can use them. the problem with elevators is over crowding. when it was operated for a few days after installation every time the over weight alarm used to ring and no one was ready to wait for next turn. the attendend had a very hard time as most of the time people used to ask him only to go out. so for the safety of passanger it has been suspented for passanger right now

I guess we Indians have always excuses! Is there any chance Indian Railways see these posts?

Depite lagging behind in having World Class Railway Stations, the major push has just started and now the thrust is on fast infrastucture growth. Over population is percieved as a plus and positive point for growth and economy both by developed countries. All (countries) eyes are now on India and China who has large population to their credits.
India is the best country (and not far far away) in the world in so far as respecting and caring senior citizens matter. Just evaluate such values in terms of percentage and not by one or two illustrations. India, in the world is still known by her rich values, heritage, sanskriti, love and affection, Much much can
