Ranjit Ji from Deoria, Uttar Pradesh, asked whether the disability pension for June has been increased. There have been discussions for a long time that the pension in Uttar Pradesh may increase from ₹1,000 to ₹1,500, but no official confirmation has been received yet. As of now, the pension amount remains ₹1,000. If any increase is announced, the information will be shared through news sources or Hamari Vani. You can also contact the pension helpline at 1800-180-1995 for updates about pension increases or payment status.
A listener from Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh asked whether the railway concession card/application can still be made offline. The response is that the railway concession form was traditionally filled offline, but many services are now moving online. If offline processing is not available, you can apply online. For accurate information, contact your district's Chief Medical Officer (CMO), who can confirm the current procedure. Once the required certification is completed, you can apply and obtain the concession card to receive railway travel discounts. For further details, you can also contact the concerned organization on the helpline number provided.
A listener from Samastipur, Bihar, shared concerns about not receiving a disability pension despite applying many years ago. The advice is to visit the Social Welfare Office or first check with the local Block Office to find out what is causing the delay. If the issue is not resolved there, contact the district administration or District Collector for assistance. The UP CM Helpline (1076) works only in Uttar Pradesh, not in Bihar. Bihar has its own helplines and procedures. Hopefully, after checking and correcting any issues in the application, the pension will be approved and start reaching the beneficiary's account regularly. The listener is also encouraged to share feedback on the outcome.

Hello, I am Rajkumar from Balrampur district, Uttar Pradesh. In response to a question about disability pension, there has been no increase in the pension amount, and no official announcement has been made regarding an increase. I believe that persons with disabilities, especially in Uttar Pradesh, are not receiving enough attention. If people come together in unity and raise their concerns through proper legal channels, such as submitting petitions or approaching the courts, there may be a better chance of getting a pension increase. However, collective action is difficult when people are not united and supportive of one another.
