HiAvinash, I haven't read the article but am just trying to explain what happens- There are many jobs or posts for which you cannot apply or stand for if you have more than two children. These public posts are coveted. So if someone wanting to stand for these posts has a disabled child they want that child not to be counted and therefore they want the Authority to consider the other 2 children only thus making these wannabe public servants eligible. Luckily Courts have always come down heavily against the non counting of disabled children. I wonder what these disabled children must be thinking of their ambitious parents? Also what about all the rehabilitation and training that our NGOs give and is there no belief in such parents that their disabled children will manage and they wont need another sibling to take care of them? These were thoughts when I had to intervene in such a case in Bombay High Court a few years ago. And the last point on this is if these post holders think so low about their disabled children then what are they going to think about the people with disabilities working in their own departments.

Very regressive guidelines. disability advocacy groups should take this up with the state government at the earliest. Read the Rajasthan Patrika report published today. https://www.patrika.com/ajmer-news/third-disabled-child-parents-not-eligible -for-job-in-education-dept-2652939/ -- Avinash Shahi Doctoral student at Centre for Law and Governance JNU Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
