The Central Government administers the Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995. State Governments are, however, mainly responsible for implementation of the provisions of the Act. They have been advised to take measures for implementation of the Act in true spirit from time to time.
The High Court of judicature at Bombay in PIL No. 106 No. 2010 titled National Confederation for the Development of Disabled Vs. UOI in its judgment dated 04.12.2013 held that the benefits of reservation to persons with disabilities in the matter of promotion to posts in the Indian Administrative Services should be applicable w.e.f. 29.12.2005, the date on which the consolidated instructions for persons with disabilities were issued. The Government filed an SLP against this Judgment in the Supreme Court, which was dismissed on 12.09.2014.
As the implementation of the judgment of the High Court of Bombay has administratively wider ramifications, the Government (Department of Personnel & Training) has filed a review petition before High Court of Bombay. The matter is subjudice.
This information was given by the Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment, Shri Krishan Pal Gurjar in a written reply to a question in Rajya Sabha here today.
