A father-and-son duo were arrested by the Government Railway Police (GRP) after they were found travelling in the disabled compartment in a local train with forged certificates. Both wanted to travel in comfort but could not afford to do so on their income as sweepers, and so they resorted to illegally travelling in the handicapped compartment, which stays relatively empty even in the rush hour. Little did they know that their lie would be found out by another handicapped passenger in the same compartment.

Sudhir Rajendra Lahkar (above) and his son, Monu, had been using their fake certificates to travel in the handicapped compartment for a year
