The Bombay High Court today asked the Railway authorities to come out with a scheme to reserve seats for senior citizens in suburban trains as the existing facility was not sufficient to accommodate the elders.
A bench headed by Chief Justice Mohit Shah gave six weeks time to Railways to file an affidavit on the issue. The Court was hearing a letter written by a senior citizen A B Thakkar urging for a direction to the authorities to reserve space for elders in local trains.
